After decades of strong growth, First Bank of Highland Park has legally changed its name to First Bank Chicago.
“The name First Bank Chicago, already in place for most of our commercial clients, allows us to reach more clients and continue our growth throughout the Chicago metro area,” says Chief Executive Officer and President Eric Ephraim. He further adds, “We are excited about these changes and the future of First Bank Chicago.”
With consistent family ownership for over 40 years, and many years to come, and an emphasis on high caliber commercial products and five-star client service, the bank continues to expand throughout Chicagoland. The bank opened a full-service banking center in Skokie in 2019. In 2021, First Bank modernized its Northbrook banking center. A loan production office was opened in Westchester in 2022. A future site is slated to open in the West Loop by the end of 2023. The original location in Highland Park will continue to use the “First Bank of Highland Park” name as a division of First Bank Chicago.
