Headquartered in Towson, MD, AmericasBank is a commercial bank dedicated to supporting the growth and prosperity of the Baltimore community with a special focus on small businesses. AmericasBank has offices in both Towson and Baltimore, MD to provide unparalleled personalized service and convenience.

Our history dates back to June 10, 1927, when La Corona Building and Loan Association, Inc. was formed to meet the financial needs of the neighboring Highlandtown and East Baltimore residents. The founders chose the name "La Corona," which means "The Crown" in Italian, to recognize the local Italian population and its major employer—Crown Cork and Seal. In 1987, La Corona was purchased and renamed Rushmore Trust and Savings, FSB.

AmericasBank Corp. was incorporated on June 4, 1996 and subsequently purchased the assets and assumed the deposit liabilities of Rushmore Trust and Savings. The Bank officially began operating as “AmericasBank” on December 1, 1997. In 1998, we purchased an 80-year-old building in Towson, MD, Baltimore County’s seat, to serve as our headquarters.  We also have a branch location in the Highlandtown community in Baltimore City.

In 2007 we introduced our two Community banking centers, Towson Community Bank and Annapolis Community Bank.  Each banking center is independently-operated and marketed under its own trade name as a division of AmericasBank.  We believe that small, independently-operated community banking centers can provide the personal service and common sense solutions not offered by larger banks.

Business is complex.
Banking shouldn't be.

Paperwork is the enemy.

Bureaucracy costs time. Time is money.

Relationships matter.

Waiting is unacceptable.

Decisions needed.
Decision-makers wanted.
