City National Bank announced on April 7 the opening of its new Westlake Village office.

The subsidiary of Toronto-based Royal Bank of Canada has been steadily growing its retail, commercial and wealth management presence in Ventura County. Its new 2,700-square-foot office at 3027 Townsgate Road will serve clients in Westlake and surrounding communities in Los Angeles and Ventura counties.

“The Conejo Valley is a growing area and home to a nationally recognized biotech industry,” Leo Hamill, senior vice president and regional manager, said in a news release. “We’re pleased to be able to deliver valuable financial solutions to the region’s professional services firms, their business leaders and their families.”

Hamill will lead a six-person private client team at the office.

With $36.4 billion in assets, City National Bank provides banking, investment and trust services through 75 offices in Southern California, the San Francisco Bay Area, Nevada, New York City, Nashville and Atlanta.
