mobank is a small business bank. It’s no secret that many small businesses and banks were hit pretty hard by the recession – and recovery continues. At mobank, however, we maintained a “business as usual” attitude. We continued to make loans, encourage growth and position for an optimistic future…in fact, one could say mobank is stronger than ever.

  • We have strong relationships with great customers who tend to have higher credit quality and lower past dues than average.
  • Our loans are in multiple industries. We are well diversified.
  • We don’t chase yield or credit for new business. We haven’t strayed from our market and what we do best. And we never will.
