NYCB President and CEO Joseph Ficalora vowed to retain the ‘Greek character’ of Atlantic Bank, a subsidiary of NYCB, in an exclusive interview with Greek Reporter at the Capital Link Forum in New York last week.
Speaking to Anastasios Papapostolou, Ficalora stressed that since its establishment in the 1920s, Atlantic Bank has always been a Greek-American orientated institution.
“We have no intention of lessening our involvement in the Greek community. And where we can, we take the opportunity to increase our involvement,” noted the NYCB chief executive.
Atlantic Bank was acquired from the National Bank of Greece by NYCB on April 28, 2006. It now operates 18 full-service branches in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Westchester, and Nassau County.
