About these listings: The people listed here are small business advocates. They help small business owners become successful. Each of these banks and their people have a long history of helping businesses to grow. There are many more people to list and there is never any charge to be listed here or any page on this web site.

• By City within San Diego County: We will be encouraging each of the banks to provide local links to each of their branch manager's contact page so you can get to know your banker in your community and that banker can get to know you. There will be no listing of banks that are not SBA-preferred lenders and that do not have a local address and telephone number.
