Axos Financial, Inc. (NYSE: AX), parent of Axos Bank, announced today that Axos Bank has been named the top local bank in San Diego County by the San Diego Business Journal. This is at least the second consecutive year that Axos Bank received this recognition, which is based on the number of local deposits.

Axos Bank is a national provider of award-winning fee-free checking accounts, savings and money-market accounts, mortgages, unsecured consumer loans, multi-family loans, auto loans, and commercial banking and commercial lending products. Axos Bank is headquartered in the La Jolla area of San Diego and over 600 of its more than 800 employees are members of the San Diego community.

“I am proud that Axos Bank has once again been named the top local bank in San Diego—in addition to recently being named one of the best banks in America by Forbes, MyBankTracker.com and GoBankingRates.com,” said Axos President and CEO Gregory Garrabrants. “Axos has been a pillar in the San Diego community for nearly 20 years, highlighted by our support of the US Navy SEAL Family Foundation, Junior Achievement of San Diego and the Hope Leadership Academy.”

This recognition comes about one month after the San Diego Business Journal published an article about Axos Bank’s investments in technology and corporate rebrand.
