About Arkansas Capital Corporation
Arkansas Capital Corporation is a different kind of financial firm. In 1957, business leaders across Arkansas joined host Winthrop Rockefeller at a backyard BBQ to discuss how they could expand economic opportunity to address poverty in a state that included some of the poorest areas of the United States. Out of that event, we were formed as a private nonprofit corporation to be an agent of positive economic change for the communities we serve.
As a nonprofit Community Development Financial Institution, we have a 65-year track record of working with communities and people that are underserved and under resourced to ensure they have access to the financial resources they need to create economic opportunities within their communities. We do this by partnering with the community and being a source of creative financing to help local businesses grow at every stage of their development.
Out of that backyard BBQ, Arkansas Capital Corporation was created to have a mission-driven mindset and a can-do attitude which is reflected in our history of hiring talented professionals and enabling them to understand the vision and add their talents to ensure the vision comes to fruition. As a result, we have invested over $1 Billion into underserved communities – making a real difference. This investment has led to positive changes in the communities we serve that include job creation; access to community goods and services, such as educational facilities; and access to commercial goods and services, such as grocery stores in food deserts.
At Arkansas Capital Corporation, we understand that to enable the change in communities our people and our reputation are our biggest assets. We are entrepreneurially minded and believe in creating a work environment where our employees feel supported, valued, and can achieve their potential. We bring the best and the brightest talent together with a standout culture, a highly autonomous yet collaborative environment, and outstanding benefits.
This was acknowledged by Arkansas Business when it named Arkansas Capital Corporation as one of the best places to work.
