LAS VEGAS, Oct. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- GBank Financial Holdings Inc. (the "Company") (OTCQX: GBFH), the parent company for GBank (formerly known as "Bank of George") (the "Bank"), today announced the public release of the Bank's new corporate brand and launch of its new Bank website. 

"When we applied for our bank approval in 2007, the FDIC advised that there were over 80 applications for de novo banks in the San Francisco region alone. We chose Bank of George to accomplish two important objectives, prompt the question 'who is George?', and instill our values with the answer - George Washington," said Edward M. Nigro, Executive Chairman. "So, today we are taking another most important step in our venture, positioning George to reflect today's rapidly advancing technical solutions that we are providing our customers. GBank shall represent the new - but the 'G' will always stand for George."

The updated logo is designed to be simplified but bold with contrasting colors. The new design provides the logo with a more current and relevant look. The design also aims to provide clients with a feel that reflects the Company's spirit of innovation.

"More and more, our national markets and communities have associated our success with the shortened name of our Holding Company: GBank," said T. Ryan Sullivan, President and CEO. "After a great deal of thought and consideration, the Boards of Directors for both the Bank and the Holding Company have determined that it is time to bring our brand awareness in line with our national image. To that end, we are excited to now update our Bank's name and brand. While our name and website have now changed, we remain focused on building on our future success while continuing to provide 'Your Best Banking Experience – Ever!®'."

The Bank's re-designed website can now be accessed at www.g.bank. It has a more intuitive user experience and additional content that supports clients and captures GBank's deep expertise and longstanding commitment to exceptional client service.

In order to enhance our internet and email security, we have changed our website and email domain from .COM to .BANK. The .BANK domain is available exclusively to the banking industry. By following the industry standard and changing our GBank website and email to the .BANK domain, it offers enhanced security by allowing others to quickly verify and confirm that they are communicating with us.
