The not-quite-10-years-old First Priority Bank has reached another milestone in its quest to provide outstanding individualized and customized service by opening up its common stock to public supporters.

The Malvern-based bank with six branches across Chester, Berks, Montgomery and Bucks counties is now trading under the stock symbol “FPBK” on the OTCQX financial marketplace.

“Our primary objective in going public on OTCQX is to provide a liquidity option for our current shareholders and to broaden the ownership opportunity for potential new investors while also increasing the overall awareness related to First Priority’s operating strengths and future growth potential,” Chairman and CEO David E. Sparks said in a PR Newswire announcement.

“We are pleased to have our stock traded on the OTCQX for Banks platform, designed by OTC Markets Group to specifically serve community-focused, strong banks within our industry, which will allow us to increase visibility and provide a higher level of overall liquidity for our stock over time.”
