OneWest Bank previously operated as a division of CIT, which merged with and became a division of First Citizens Bank in January 2022. In addition to the OneWest Bank conversion, CIT commercial deposit customers who accessed CIT treasury payment services through the Business eBanking platform have also completed their transition to First Citizens Bank’s treasury management systems platforms.
“While First Citizens and CIT’s multiple business units and corporate functions have already been effectively operating as one company, this conversion marks a major milestone,” said Frank B. Holding Jr., Chairman and CEO of First Citizens. “Now that it’s complete, we’ve deepened our presence in Southern California and converted a great majority of consumer customers’ loans and deposits within the overall CIT portfolio to our systems. We’re creating an even better and stronger bank – with the ability to offer additional convenience and value for our customers. The dedication shown by our bank teams as we’ve joined together has been outstanding.”
