- Northern California Bancorp, Inc. (NRLB) is the holding company for Monterey County Bank, which provides retail and commercial banking products and services to individuals and small- to medium-sized businesses primarily in Monterey County, California. Founded in 1983 and headquartered in Monterey, California, the bank offers deposit products including personal and business checking accounts, savings accounts, money market investment accounts, certificates of deposit, and individual retirement accounts; lending products focused on commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, small business administration (SBA) 7(a) loans--where it ranks as the leading provider in Monterey County--and secured term loans for business expansion or refinancing; and additional services such as merchant credit card processing, debit cards, drive-through facilities, night depositories, safe deposit boxes, cashier's checks, wire transfers, remote deposit capture, and ACH origination for payroll processing. The bank operates four branches on the Monterey Peninsula in Monterey, Pacific Grove, Carmel Rancho, and Salinas. In August 2024, Northern California Bancorp merged with PCB Financial, Inc., becoming a wholly owned subsidiary and transitioning to private ownership, which enabled Monterey County Bank to increase lending limits, introduce loans for investment and owner-occupied properties, add lines of credit and short-term working capital solutions, and launch new treasury products including remote deposit capture. Recent enhancements also include ATM upgrades at the Monterey branch for 24/7 cash and check deposits, alongside a refreshed website and ongoing rollout of new digital banking features as of early 2025.
