Community Outreach & Reinvestment Initiatives

Metropolitan Commercial Bank (MCB) is deeply committed to the prosperity of the communities we serve. Our community outreach and reinvestment initiatives foster education and create opportunities for individuals to reach greater financial security, independence, and confidence.

A Local Partner for Our Local Communities

At MCB, we know that when our neighbors thrive, so do we. As a community-minded financial partner, we believe in helping individuals and communities alike. We support a range of community-based, nonprofit, 501c3 organizations throughout the five boroughs of New York City and across Long Island.

Our Commitment to CRA Excellence

We don’t just strive to meet the guidelines set by the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA); we’re committed to exceeding them. Our CRA team works with our executive leadership to establish benchmarks for investments in underserved communities, offering financial support to organizations and initiatives that have been carefully vetted.
