Why ShoreBank Pacific?
ShoreBank Pacific is the first commercial bank in the United States with a commitment to environmentally sustainable community development. We believe that long-term community prosperity goes hand-in-hand with a healthy environment. With that vision, ShoreBank Pacific, a Washington State chartered, FDIC insured bank, was formed in 1997 as a joint project of ShoreBank Corp., Chicago (the nation's first community development bank) and Ecotrust™, an environmental non-profit located in Portland, Oregon.
Through our lending programs, ShoreBank Pacific brings together conservation and community and economic development. With each loan, we provide information that increases the borrower's business.
ShoreBank Pacific helps borrowers:
- Be more profitable
- Minimize environmental impact
- Assist leadership for community development
