Coastwide banking service
In 1864, a bank that adhered to an essentially commercial type of service was ahead of its day, for commercial and industrial progress on the Coast had hardly begun.
Since then, the unified development of the three Pacific states has demonstrated, many times, the foresight of the founders of The Bank of California. The steady growth of this bank (since 1864 in California, 1882 in Oregon and 1889 in Washington) rests on its close relationship with all major industries of the West.
