About First City Bank

First City Bank is a new community-focused institution relocating an existing Georgia charter to Alpharetta. It will serve North Fulton with personal service, local decision-making, and modern digital banking built for a growing regional economy.

Why This Bank is Being Started

North Fulton is one of the strongest economic corridors in Georgia. Growth, business density, and high-income households create sustained demand for responsive banking. Yet only one locally headquartered bank remains. Large institutions offer technology, but personal service and local decisions have disappeared.


This bank fills that gap by focusing on three needs:

• Direct relationships and real access to bankers

• Local credit decisions made by people who live and work here

• Capital that stays in the community and supports local businesses

Our Vision for First City Bank

We will deliver a focused commercial banking model supported by leading technology, modern treasury services, and relationship-driven lending. The bank will champion local businesses, support economic growth, and reinvest into the communities we serve.

Our Purpose

The bank exists to restore personal banking to a market that has grown rapidly while most local institutions have consolidated. Our team believes the area needs a locally led bank offering strong governance, conservative operations, and direct access to experienced bankers.

Our Leadership

The founders and proposed directors bring decades of experience across banking, finance, real estate, commercial lending, entrepreneurship, public service, and community leadership. Their combined backgrounds include executive banking roles, corporate finance, development, board leadership, technology, healthcare operations, and professional services.

The Board includes founders with backgrounds in banking, commercial real estate, residential development, accounting, law, private equity, financial services, healthcare leadership, hospitality, technology, and charitable organizations. All members have meaningful ties within North Fulton and surrounding communities.
