Sunrise Banks Receives $202,898 Bank Enterprise Award

September 23, 2020

(St. Paul, Minn. | Sept. 23, 2020) — Sunrise Banks has received a $202,898 Bank Enterprise Award (BEA).

The BEA program provides monetary awards to FDIC-insured depository institutions that have increased their lending, investing, or service activities in the most economically distressed local communities.

Award proceeds are then reinvested back into the distressed communities, which helps accelerate the growth of businesses, job creation, development of affordable housing, and availability of financial services.

The BEA is funded by the Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) Fund. Sunrise Banks will use the allocation to continue investing in low-income neighborhoods in the Twin Cities.

“We’re grateful to again receive a BEA award and look forward to investing these funds in our local communities that need them the most,” said Sunrise Banks CEO David Reiling.

The CDFI Fund awarded $25.2 million in BEA Program awards in fiscal year 2020. Sunrise Banks is one of 138 award recipients.
