MEDIA, EVENTS, & NEWS
Urgent wire requests, last-minute changes to payment instructions, and emails that appear to come from someone you trust are all signs of one of the most costly scams in banking today - wire fraud.
Wire fraud is one of the most costly scams affecting individuals and businesses today. Once a wire transfer is sent, it`s nearly impossible to recover.
Before you act on any payment request, pause and verify:
• Confirm wire instructions by calling a known, trusted number - not the one in the email.
• Be cautious of any last-minute changes to account or routing details.
• If something feels off, slow down. Urgency is a scammer`s favorite tool.
At Cypress Bank & Trust, protecting your assets is part of how we do business.

Choosing a bank is more than choosing where to keep your money; it`s choosing who you trust with your financial future.
The right bank takes the time to understand your story, whether that means growing your business, planning for your family, or making everyday financial decisions with confidence. It`s a relationship built on trust, not transactions.
Check out what our own Max Jasmund, Commercial Banking Associate, has to say about why that kind of partnership makes all the difference in this month`s Orlando Business Journal.

Thirty years ago, a group of trust and banking professionals came together with a shared vision to build something guided locally, with clients at the center of every decision.
Phil Young was part of that original team. What they started in Palm Beach has grown into the Cypress Bank & Trust we know today - expanded across Florida, but still rooted in the same values.
"What began as a local vision has become a lasting organization, and that is something we are proud to carry forward."
Thank you, Phil.

Your bank will never ask for your password by phone, text, or email. If someone does, it`s a scam.
Account takeover fraud is one of the fastest-growing threats in banking right now — and it starts with a convincing message designed to catch you off guard.
If something doesn`t feel right, trust your instincts and call us directly. Your Cypress Bank & Trust team is here to help

Great conversations lead to stronger communities.
Our team had the privilege of sitting down with Andrea Siracusa, Director of Community Relations at Dreams Come True, to learn more about the work her organization is doing to make a lasting impact right here in our community.
At Cypress Bank & Trust, we believe in showing up not just as bankers, but as neighbors. Thank you, Andrea, for your dedication and for sharing your story with us.

Congratulations to Mercedes McCall, Senior Vice President and Senior Relationship Manager, on graduating from the Leadership Winter Park program.
This year-long initiative by the Winter Park Chamber of Commerce takes professionals behind the scenes of the Winter Park region - exploring civic systems, cultural institutions, and economic development through hands-on, immersive field days. It`s a program that builds the kind of community leaders who make a lasting difference.
The Cypress Bank & Trust team was proud to be there to celebrate Mercedes and her accomplishment - it’s well deserved.

Thirty years ago, Cypress Bank & Trust opened its doors in Palm Beach with a vision rooted in relationships, trust, and personalized service. On April 29, 2026, we had the privilege of celebrating that milestone in the city where it all began.
Thank you to our clients, colleagues, and friends who joined us at the Canopy by Hilton West Palm Beach Downtown for an evening of celebration, connection, and reflection on the journey that brought us here.
What started as a boutique fiduciary has grown into a full-service bank and trust company serving clients across Florida - and we remain committed to the relationships that have defined us for the past three decades.
Here’s to 30 years of trust and growth - and to the future ahead.

At Cypress Bank & Trust, trust and banking go hand in hand.
We recently closed a $1 million line of credit for an existing trust client - a strategic financing solution designed to provide flexibility for larger purchases and a reliable resource when the unexpected arises.
It`s moments like these that remind us why collaboration between our trust and banking teams matters. When professionals work together with the client`s full picture in mind, the result is more than a transaction; it`s confidence, clarity, and a plan built for the long term.
That`s relationship-driven banking.
