In June 2009, Jay Sidhu and a group of investors purchased a struggling Phoenixville-based community bank with five branch locations. Today, Customers Bank is a super-community bank offering commercial and consumer banking services in major metro markets across the United States. With its holding company still headquartered in Berks, Customers remains an enthusiastic hometown bank that delivers high-touch personal banking supported by the latest in secure technology.
The team at Customers Bank has a passion for excellence and makes it their mission to provide memorable service. They want to build a highly successful bank that makes people say, “WOW!” From personal loans and mortgages to small business lending and real estate specialty finance, Customers Bank offers banking wherever and whenever you need it.
Under the guidance and leadership of Jay Sidhu and Richard ("Dick") Ehst, Customers Bank has grown from $250 million in assets to approximately $18.8 billion in just over a decade in business. Now the bank is celebrating a milestone transition, saying “so long” to Ehst as he retires from his role as President & CEO and welcoming Sam Sidhu into that leadership position. It’s an exciting time for the entire team, and they are looking forward to many more years of helping customers succeed.
