Relationships Matter Most

With deep roots in serving political organizations throughout the DC metropolitan area, our client relationships are built by proactively working to meet your needs.

“By law, PACs are required to maintain at least one (1) checking account for purposes of accepting contributions and making disbursements to candidates and political committees. All national banks and federally insured credit unions are eligible to provide this service; however, we know firsthand most of these institutions have limited experience opening and administering such accounts. That’s why when Capital Bank created a unit specifically for the purpose of servicing PACs AND assigned an officer knowledgeable of PAC operations that got my attention.

From initial set-up for a new PAC, to changing the designated account signers, or adding positive pay, I can count on Chuck Kettenacker and Capital Bank to get it accomplished quickly and correctly. For the PAC community, having a bank that “gets it” is a truly valuable resource and PAC Outsourcing has and will continue to recommend Capital Bank to our clients and friends for their PAC banking requirements.”

“Chuck is an out-of-the-box thinker and has developed some smart banking services focused around the PAC community. He is extremely responsive and dedicated to his work. If I ever need his help, he is available 24/7. I highly recommend Chuck to anyone looking for financial solutions in the PAC & small business arena.”

What separates an excellent bank from a mediocre one? Having worked with many mediocre banks and one excellent bank, the answer to that question is an excellent banker, and Chuck Kettenacker is an excellent banker! Our firm worked with another local bank for over 20 years prior to switching all of our accounts to Capital Bank. We were very frustrated with the lack of customer service and slow response times from our original bank because we need our bank to respond in a timely manner so we can respond to our clients.

Slow response has never been an issue since we started working with Chuck. If he is unable to reply, he has someone from his team respond to us with answers to resolve our issues. PASS manages political compliance programs for over 200 PACs – each with at least one bank account – so we work with a lot of bankers, and there is no comparison between the other bankers and Chuck Kettenacker. He is the best and makes it well worth the hassle of moving your account to Capital Bank!
