Hispanic-Focused Security One Bank to open in Fairfax County.

After a successful capital campaign to raise $15 million, Security One Bank will open its doors in Fairfax County. The bank will operate as a full-service community bank, serving all small businesses and consumers with a special focus on the underserved Hispanic market.

“After 15 months in the process of organization, I feel extremely proud to present the first community bank headquartered in the metropolitan region that will provide specific programs and services to the Hispanic community,” said William Soza, chairman of the Board of Directors of Security One Bank. He continued, “With this focus, the personal and business banking needs of our metropolitan region will be met with general inclusiveness.”

“The Hispanic community is a significant and growing part of Fairfax County, and the Hispanic business community is thriving here as well. Security One Bank is an important component in strengthening these communities,” said Gerald L. Gordon, Ph.D., president and CEO of the Fairfax County Economic Development Authority.

“My commitment is to make Security One Bank the best community bank in the region, and to meet the challenge of being the bridge to provide the local Hispanic community with mainstream financial services,” said Carl Dodson, President and CEO of Security One Bank.
