EDMOND, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, veteran-led Citizens Bank of Edmond publicly launched Roger, the only digital-first bank tailored to service members, under the leadership of President and CEO Jill Castilla.
Established in 1901 with $375 million in assets, Citizens Bank of Edmond is renowned for its community-focused banking and lending services. Inspired by her own experience, Castilla, a U.S. Army and Oklahoma National Guard veteran, spouse of an Army retiree, and a Blue Star mother, sought to identify ways to support service members and their families from day one.
“When I enlisted at 19, I had little access to my bank accounts and financial tools,” explained Castilla. “Working with Nymbus, we set out to make the transition into service easy with a digital-first approach for account set-up and management. America’s service members are strong, courageous and deserve a financial partner that will work alongside them as they build their future wealth.
In this groundbreaking move, Citizens Bank of Edmond has forged a strategic partnership with Nymbus, the frontrunner in next-generation digital banking solutions. This alliance is poised to redefine industry standards by focusing on creating an unparalleled digital banking experience for military service members. The collaboration underscores both parties' commitment to industry innovation and an accountable partnership that prioritizes the financial well-being of America's military community.
“We’re extremely proud to partner with Citizens Bank of Edmond on this essential niche bank for the military community,” commented Jeffery Kendall, Chairman and CEO of Nymbus. “With Jill’s leadership and vision, we aim to deliver special-purpose products to help military service members succeed.”
