North Atlanta Bank – Our History

North Atlanta Bank was founded as North Atlanta National Bank. Starting out with a staff of five in a temporary office located in a strip shopping center, we opened the doors of our permanent home in 1998.

North Atlanta National Bank was established on the bedrock beliefs that a bank should have a genuine commitment to serving the financial needs of its community, should always do business “the right way” to remain safe and sound, and should work hard to earn its place as a good corporate citizen. We chose a motto that distilled these founding principles to their essence: “Service. Soundness. Community.”

During our first decade, we have grown along with many of our clients, including some of those who were standing at the door when we opened for business. We have operated with safety and soundness. We have consistently donated our time and personal effort, and sponsored worthy community organizations and causes.

In 2007, North Atlanta National Bank entered into an agreement to be purchased by Shinhan Bank America. Headquartered in New York, Shinhan Bank America is a part of a large international banking company. After the purchase was completed, we began operating as North Atlanta Bank, a division of Shinhan Bank America.

We remain, at heart, your community bank. Our staff remains committed to the high level of professional service to which our customers have become accustomed. When you visit the bank, you will see friendly faces and receive the same attentive, helpful service. We have always believed that our customers bank with people, and not an institution; so even though our ownership changed, our bedrock principles have not. Our commitment to serving our customers and our communities remains steadfast.
