History of Fremont Bank
Fremont Bank began in 1964 and was founded by a WWII veteran who relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area in the 1940s. This bank is relatively unique in the sense that it has been family-owned and operated from when it was founded to today.
The founder’s three kids continue to work with Fremont Bank and serve in management. As one of the first places to offer Saturday banking, Fremont Bank appears to have made significant efforts to tailor its services to the needs of customers.
