About CBC BANKER:
Founded by Christopher B. Crump, CBC BANKER was built to bring clarity, strategy, and responsiveness back to financial services. After years of working in both corporate finance and fractional CFO roles, Chris recognized that business owners needed more than traditional banking structures could offer. By eliminating layers of management and unnecessary overhead, CBC BANKER delivers high-level financial expertise with greater flexibility, faster response times, and a more personal client experience.
Rooted in the principle of Finance with Clarity. Strategy with Purpose., CBC BANKER integrates lending, commercial finance, and fractional CFO services under one platform — designed to help clients move forward confidently toward their commercial and personal financial goals.
At its core, CBC BANKER operates on honesty, transparency, and long-term relationships. Every client interaction begins with listening — understanding not just the numbers, but the “why” behind each decision. This clarity allows for strategic, tailored solutions that align short-term actions with long-term goals.
Whether structuring a loan, advising on complex business decisions, or serving as a fractional CFO, Chris and CBC BANKER provide a balance of analytical precision and genuine partnership. Their mission is simple: to give clients the confidence and freedom to focus on what matters most, knowing their financial foundation is sound, strategic, and future-focused.
Meet the Founder: Christopher B. Crump:
When I founded CBC BANKER, my goal was simple — to give clients the financial clarity and strategic insight I felt was missing in traditional banking and advisory models. After two decades in finance, I saw firsthand how rigid management layers and outdated processes could slow progress and raise costs for clients. I wanted to build something different — a firm where responsiveness, honesty, and real human relationships came first.
My background in industrial engineering, finance, and business strategy allows me to approach each client’s needs with both precision and creativity. From restructuring commercial portfolios to guiding small business owners through complex financial decisions, I focus on finding efficient, practical solutions that align with long-term goals.
Over the years, I’ve served in a range of roles — from Vice President of Finance at Serendipity Wines, where I helped optimize performance through data-driven analysis, to fractional CFO positions where I’ve guided organizations through critical transitions. Each experience has reinforced a simple truth: finance isn’t just about numbers — it’s about people, purpose, and partnership.
Clients often tell me they appreciate how I make complex topics understandable. I believe in listening first, explaining clearly, and ensuring every client walks away feeling confident, not confused. For me, success is measured not by transactions, but by lasting relationships built on trust.
Finance with clarity. Strategy with purpose. That’s not just a tagline — it’s the foundation of how I work every day.
