The company emphasizes omnichannel banking, integrating digital platforms with brick-and-mortar locations to enhance customer experience and operational efficiency.
The company operates over 110 locations across the United States and Asia, with 96 U.S. branches located in California, Texas, New York, Washington, Georgia, Massachusetts, and Nevada. International operations include branches in China and Hong Kong, plus representative offices in China and Singapore. As of December 31, 2025, the company employed 3,350 full-time equivalent employees, with approximately 300 located in Asia.
