North Fulton Business Radio, Episode 201:  Charlie Brown, Loyal Trust Bank

Charlie Brown, CEO of the recently opened Loyal Trust Bank, joins this edition of “North Fulton Business Radio.” Charlie discusses his bank’s mission and target customers, how technology helps a newly-formed bank like his serve clients better, and the impact he sees from the coronavirus. “North Fulton Business Radio” is hosted by John Ray and is broadcast from the North Fulton Business RadioX® studio inside Renasant Bank in Alpharetta.

Charlie Brown, Loyal Trust Bank

Charlie Brown is the President and CEO of Loyal Trust Bank. “Comfortable” and “easier” are words some customers are using to describe doing business with the bank due to its multi-cultural approach to banking.

This is also due in large part because the headquarters is local, opening November 15, 2019 after the Founding Directors discovered a need for just such a bank. This location for a headquarters means the policy and decision makers, including the board and executives are close to the customers or know them personally as well as active in the community. This availability and local focus allows leadership in the bank to consider the communities to financial needs and respond accordingly.

Secondly, Loyal Trust Bank is the only bank headquartered in Johns Creek, GA, the organization holds the distinction of being a truly multi-cultural community bank as evidenced by its board of directors and staffing. Again, this allows anyone from multiple cultures to do business with the bank and work with a banking professional that understands their language and culture. Specifically, the bank has a focus as a start on the Asian American community as well as the business community from all cultures.

Location:  11675 Medlock Bridge Rd., Johns Creek, GA 30097. You can learn more by visiting their website or by calling 678-783-8018.
