Eric Sprink

President & CEO

Professional Bio

Eric M. Sprink serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of Coastal Community Bank and Coastal Financial Corporation. Coastal prides itself on being “un-bankey” and has organically grown from less than $200 million in assets when Eric joined the bank in 2006, to more than $2 billion today.

Community is the bank’s middle name and a way of doing business. We are openly changing the rules of what banking means. In addition to meeting the needs of local Coastal Community Bank (CCB) business clients, Coastal is delivering Partner Banking or “Banking as a Service” to FinTech’s, capitalizing on the strong relationship culture built on top of a robust compliance backbone through its wholesale banking division - CCBX.

Because of the relationships the bank has built with FinTech’s, Eric is a frequent speaker and advocate for bank/Fintech partnerships. He has worked closely with a number of regulatory bodies as the banking industry evolves and faces disruption.
In spite of living in the Pacific Northwest, Eric is a Tarheel and will happily share his thoughts on North Carolina sports. Active in community affairs, Eric is a past chair of the Community Bankers of Washington and is involved with numerous local non-profits.
