Black-owned banks play a critical role in fighting modern-day systemic racism in the financial sector. As an alternative to larger institutions, they provide greater access to banking services as well as an opportunity to support local communities. Black-owned banks provide customers not only access to the financial resources they need but also the chance to invest in the financial health and well-being of their community.
