About Us

Founded in 1976 and headquartered in Claremont, California, Community Commerce Bank (CCB) is a mission-driven financial institution dedicated to strengthening the economic vitality of the communities we serve. As a proud member of The East Los Angeles Community Union (TELACU) family of companies, CCB was established with a clear purpose: to expand access to capital, support responsible growth, and create lasting community impact throughout California.

For five decades, CCB has delivered personalized banking solutions to individuals, businesses, nonprofit and religious organizations, and real estate investors. We specialize in commercial real estate lending, multifamily properties (five units or more), and financing for nonprofit, faith-based, and community-focused organizations, as well as other real estate loans for both business and consumer purposes. Our comprehensive suite of FDIC-insured deposit products complements our lending expertise and supports long-term financial stability for our customers.

Community Commerce Bank is recognized for both financial strength and community performance. The Bank is considered “Well Capitalized” under all applicable regulatory standards and has received an “Outstanding” rating from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) for its effectiveness in meeting the credit needs of its communities, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. This independent evaluation reflects our disciplined approach to lending, strong geographic and borrower distribution, and commitment to safe and sound banking practices.

Through our affiliation with TELACU, CCB supports a broad range of social and economic development initiatives, including education scholarships, affordable and senior housing projects, weatherization programs, and veteran support services. These efforts reinforce our belief that strong financial institutions play a vital role in building resilient, inclusive communities.

At Community Commerce Bank, success is measured not only by financial performance, but by the positive, lasting impact we help create. We remain committed to responsible growth, thoughtful lending, and meaningful partnerships that empower individuals, organizations, and neighborhoods across California.
