Nicole Swain

Bank of Southern California

Nicole has led the relatively new Private Banking Group at Bank of Southern California since joining as an executive officer in September 2021. Before working at the Bank of Southern California, Nicole worked as an EVP Chief Banking Officer at First Choice Bank, assisting in growing a modest community bank into a much larger company. Before First Choice Bank, Nicole was an SVP Private Banking Manager at Beach Business Bank and an executive officer at Bay Cities National Bank. Nicole contributed to each bank loan and deposit portfolio while managing high-profile clients at all institutions. One such high-profile client was a contestant on the T.V. show “Shark Tank,” who she thought didn’t have a suitable lender reached out to win his business and ultimately procured over $10 million in business with him.
