Since 1963, Citywide Banks has helped the Denver community flourish by working side-by-side with local businesses so they can realize their goals and grow. Back then our philosophy was to develop close relationships with our customers and learn about how we can help them best, and that philosophy still exists to this day.
Citywide's Financial Stability
Citywide's 2009 Annual Report
We are committed to remaining locally owned and independently operated, which provides us with the freedom to offer fully customized solutions and has positioned us as a specialist in Denver business banking. Our independence also empowers us with the ability to structure small business loans according to our customers' needs and respond to loan applications in a matter of days.
Focusing on Values
Citywide is an independent bank – a family owned
business where values play an important role in our
growth as a provider of banking services and as an
employer. Like any successful business, we have profit goals.
But profit is secondary to values at Citywide. We will
always put honesty and hard work first as we strive to
meet our customers’ expectations. As a management
team we are determined to provide leadership – to set clear expectations and to lead by example.
We foster this trait across the organization by
encouraging staff to present new ideas and by
asking them to seek out opportunities to improve
service and productivity. With the Chairman of
our Board, Vince Schmitz, leading the charge – our
goal is to inspire a sense of leadership in every
Citywide employee.
Setting High Standards
Our success is measured by the achievements of our
customers. We help customers reach their goals by
maintaining the highest credit policy and banking
service standards. We invest up-front in understanding
the unique attributes of each client’s business and we
don’t make recommendations that are not in their
best interest. We have great confidence this consistent
approach is the path to sustainable growth for our
own business as well. Citywide will be here, helping
Denver area businesses succeed, for many generations
to come.
Accepting Accountability
Ask any Citywide Banks employee about the importance
of accountability and they will tell you it is the very
core of our service philosophy. It’s a powerful thing –
a strong sense of personal responsibility for doing what
is right. As individuals and as a team we know
we deliver better customer service because each of us
takes that charge personally.
