Coastal Federal Bank
Organized in 1954 by a group of community leaders in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Coastal Federal Bank was founded from the belief that the community needed a locally-based lending institution to serve the unique needs of its residents.
Initially, Coastal Federal accepted time deposits, paid interest and loaned money. After the devastation of Hurricane Hazel in October 1954, Coastal Federal led the rebuilding efforts of the community by offering lending options at reasonable rates. It was at that time that Coastal Federal dramatically benefited and began to prosper.

In 1989, Coastal Federal began selling stock, in order to raise enough capital to provide new services, expand facilities and grow. At that time a holding company, Coastal Financial Corporation was formed. As Coastal Federal continues to grow and prosper, it never forgets those in the community who benefit from their services.
