Mark Riley | President, Bank of America Fresno and Visalia

Hear from Mark Riley, President of Bank of America Fresno and Visalia, about our role in keeping Fresno and Visalia moving forward.

Let’s build something together

Bank of America has long-standing roots within the diverse communities of Fresno, Merced and Visalia. To drive economic opportunity in our neighborhoods, we have committed to supporting workforce development and job placement initiatives for the Central Valley’s underserved populations. This includes ensuring members of our communities receive the education, technical training and resources they need to successfully secure sustainable employment.

We also partner with local organizations that guide Black, Hispanic and female entrepreneurs as well as small business owners from low- and moderate-income communities.

Inroads to employment

According to Brookings Institute, even in pre-pandemic Fresno, 45% of its residents struggled to make ends meet. Yet, there are 34,000 unfilled "good and promising" jobs in high growth industries in the area, suggesting there’s a misalignment between workers’ skills, training and access and open jobs. In 2019, local civic leaders launched Fresno DRIVE (Developing the Region’s Inclusive and Vibrant Economy), a 10-year, $4.2 billion economic development plan to address these issues. The plan was formed by a 300-person steering committee representing more than 150 local nonprofits, community leaders, neighborhoods, institutions and businesses.

Supporting economic opportunity for diverse people & communities

At Bank of America, we have a long-standing commitment to support economic opportunity for diverse people and communities. We are doing this by building upon our existing efforts and leveraging our strengths: creating more affordable housing and expanding home ownership, increasing lending and support to minority-owned small businesses, championing job training and career readiness and addressing health disparities like access to care. We continue to focus on working collaboratively across sectors to advance opportunities that will create real impact in the lives of individuals and for the communities we serve, using the past to inform our perspective and understanding as we tackle barriers within our communities.
