AMERICAN BUSINESS BANK has announced the opening of its San Diego Regional Office, marking a significant step in the Bank’s growth across Southern California. The new Loan Production Office (LPO), located at 4727 Executive Drive, Suite 275, in San Diego, is strategically positioned to better serve the needs of local businesses.
Over the years, ABB has developed strong relationships with select clients in the San Diego region. This expansion comes as a natural progression to provide enhanced banking services and strengthen its commitment to the community.
“San Diego was a strategic and inevitable choice as we continue to serve the best clients in Southern California,” said Leon Blankstein, CEO of American Business Bank. “Our team of highly skilled bankers is excited to deepen our presence in the region by building meaningful relationships and delivering exceptional service.”
The San Diego LPO is led by Senior Vice President John Hartwig and First Vice President Ana Calvert, who together bring over 60 years of combined expertise in client-focused commercial banking. Their leadership will ensure the delivery of tailored financial solutions to support the area’s thriving small to mid-sized, family-run businesses—the backbone of the local economy.
“Our vision is to grow this office brick by brick, client by client, and banker by banker, while continuing to serve best-in-class, privately owned middle-market companies,” Hartwig stated.
The San Diego office will offer a comprehensive suite of financial services, including business loans, credit lines, treasury management, and deposit solutions. ABB aims to provide innovative and flexible financial solutions designed to help businesses scale and navigate today’s dynamic marketplace.
