A new Black-owned financial institution could emerge west of Texas! The investment group Redemption Holding Co. (RHC), led by former White House Policy Advisor Ashley D. Bell, wants to acquire Holladay Bank & Trust in Holladay, UT, per an outlet. If approved, the Utah financial institution will be renamed Redemption Bank and become the only Minority Depository Institution west of Texas. "All of us require a bank to operate, and the reality was there was no Black-owned bank that we could sit on top of to operate with the way we're currently constructed," Bell told The Sacramento Observer.

Per The Wall Street Journal, she will join the bank's advisory board and serve as the senior vice president for impact banking.
