To be the trusted Native-owned national bank committed to meeting your financial needs, as well as the financial needs of your business and your nation.

Through collaboration, provide access to financial services for Alaska Native and Native American communities creating economic independence, development and sustainability.

We have continually worked with American Indian and Alaska Native individuals, enterprises and governments to reach their goals by providing affordable and flexible banking and financial services. We focus on pooling economic resources to enhance Indian economic independence by promoting self-determination in investment, job creation and sustainable growth.

Our success in Indian Country has also allowed us to grow and expand our client base. While we specialize in financial partnerships with Tribal Nations and Native-owned companies, we also serve a broader customer base that shares our values of financial sustainability and community empowerment.

One of the biggest challenges that Native people have faced nationwide is the lack of access to financial capital and services, creating a major barrier to self-sufficiency and financial freedom in Indian Country.

In 2001, twenty Tribal Nations and Alaska Native Corporations came together with a shared vision to create a national bank dedicated to serving Native people, communities, governments, and enterprises across the country—leading to the establishment of Native American Bank. 

Today, Native American Bank operates retail banks in Denver, Colorado and Browning, Montana, and a loan production office in Issaquah, Washington. Approximately 95% of our loans are made to Native- and Tribal-owned companies and nearly 90% of our commercial lending supports projects in underserved areas. Over the past five years, we have made loans totaling $128 million to support $250 million in projects in Indian Country.

In 2025, Native American Bank plans to expand our services into new markets and increase accessibility for our customers by opening our third retail branch on the Tulalip Reservation in Washington state.
