OUR HISTORY
Founded by Richard Fairbank in 1988, Capital One began as a monoline credit card company. Today we have grown into a Fortune 500 full-service commercial and retail bank with operations in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. Strategically entering commercial banking in 2005, we developed proprietary banking tech tools. As a global diversified services provider, we have national scale and historic banking experience rooted in local communities (New York, New Jersey, the Mid-Atlantic, Texas and Louisiana). Headquartered in McLean, VA, and led by Rich, Capital One trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol COF and is included in the S&P 100 index.

OUR COMMITMENT
A $200 Million Commitment to Communities
Our mission is to change banking for good by bringing humanity, integrity and simplicity to it. The Capital One Impact Initiative advances socioeconomic mobility by advocating for an inclusive society, building thriving communities and creating financial tools that enrich lives. It is fueled by an initial $200 million multi-year commitment to catalyze economic growth in low- to moderate-income communities—and close gaps in equity and opportunity.
