Our Story
Like your business, Endeavor Bank started as a dream.
Equipped with decades of banking and business experience, CEO Dan Yates, President Steve Sefton, and a Board of Directors made up of leading financial experts and Southern California businesspeople envisioned a bank for businesses and their owners where decisions are made locally, and services are delivered by an experienced banker who is also a trusted advisor. The local business community embraced our new Endeavor, realizing that we deliver more than an exceptional banking experience through our unique consultative banking approach.
Endeavor Bank is primarily owned and operated by local business owners, with over 600 shareholders and a focus that is local: local decision-making, local board, local founders, local owners, and relationships with local clients in the San Diego metropolitan marketplace and its surrounding areas.
Headquartered in downtown San Diego in the landmark Symphony Towers building, the Bank also operates a loan production and executive administration office in Carlsbad. In addition to providing traditional business banking services across a broad spectrum of industries and specialties, Endeavor Bank partners business clients with our senior management team and together, we build strategies and provide resources that solve problems, plan for the future, and help clients’ efforts to grow revenues and profits.
Our consultative banking services differentiate us from other banks.

“Local companies want to do business with local banks. Large, national banking institutions don’t offer personalized services. Endeavor Bank isn’t a traditional bank and we aren’t traditional bankers.” –Steve Sefton, President of Endeavor Bank.
