History

The company was founded in 1978 by the Fasseas family as Metropolitan Bank Group after the purchase of North Community Bank.[2]

The family grew the bank from a single location to more than 90 branches in the Chicago metropolitan area before suffering in the financial crisis of 2007-08.[3]

In 2009, the company accepted $71.5 million from the Troubled Asset Relief Program.[2][4][5]

In 2013, BXM Holdings LLC, led by Roberto Herencia, purchased and recapitalized the bank with a $207 million investment.[3]

In 2015, the company was renamed Byline Bancorp Inc. and consolidated all its subsidiaries under the name Byline Bank.[6]

In 2016, the company acquired Ridgestone Bank.[7][8]

In June 2017, the company became a public company via an initial public offering.[9][10][11]

In May 2018, the company acquired First Evanston Bancorp for $178.6 million in cash and stock.[12]

In April 2019, the company acquired Oak Park River Forest Bank shares for $40.0 million in cash and stock.[13]
