Our Vision
First Security Banks’s vision is to help create a prosperous and diverse community of micro-businesses
(15 employees or less) across Oklahoma City. We serve all Oklahomans, especially African American and other minority-owned businesses. We hope that by emphasizing the economic and community development benefits of providing banking solutions to minorities, we will inspire other banks to do the same and build a foundation for all businesses to flourish.
Our Mission
Our mission is to create innovative and flexible banking products providing financial capital to small businesses. Further, we promote community development and economic opportunity through the provision of financial products and services directed toward improving the social and economic conditions of the underserved people and/or distressed communities.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
We take pride in being an FDIC Minority Depository Institution with more than 50% minority ownership. Throughout 2020 and 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, we were privileged to work with local Oklahoma City small businesses hit by the subsequent economic lockdowns. Approximately 96% of our Paycheck Protection Program loans went to minority-owned businesses. We strive to be your trusted financial advocate and resource. Whether you need help with your small business or taking charge of your personal finances, sit down with us, and we'll get you there.
