Our Profile: Rebirth and Regional Strength Since 2009
BankUnited, N.A. is the national bank subsidiary of BankUnited, Inc. (NYSE: BKU), a publicly traded financial services holding company. While the original BankUnited entity was founded in 1984, the modern institution was organized in 2009 following the acquisition of the failed BankUnited, FSB, by a management team led by John A. Kanas and backed by a group of investors including W.L. Ross and The Carlyle Group. The company completed its successful IPO in 2011.
Headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida, BankUnited is recognized as the largest independent depository institution based in Florida. With total assets exceeding $35.1 billion, the bank operates a dual-market strategy with a strong presence in Florida and significant commercial lending operations in the New York metropolitan area, Dallas, Atlanta, and Charlotte.
