Verdigris Holdings Chooses Phoenix, Arizona, for Corporate Headquarters

07/24/2019
Verdigris Holdings, Inc., the company bringing banking to the unbanked, will locate its corporate headquarters in metro Phoenix, Arizona. The project is expected to create 210 jobs.

“Verdigris is bringing a solution to the over 25% of US households with no or limited access to the regulated banking system. To address this significant need we wanted our headquarters in a state that would be our partner with the right access to talent, innovation-oriented regulatory environment, and focus on its communities. We found that home in Arizona,” said Michael Coghlan, CEO for Verdigris Holdings.

“We are excited Verdigris has chosen Arizona to create hundreds of new, high-paying jobs,” said Arizona Governor Doug Ducey. “More and more companies are moving to Arizona for our world-class economic environment and exceptional quality of life.”

“Verdigris will be a valuable asset to the business and financial services sector in Arizona, which is one of the fastest-growing in the nation,” said Sandra Watson, President & CEO of Arizona Commerce Authority. “We thank Verdigris for establishing its headquarters operation in Arizona and look forward to supporting its continued success in our state.”

“Arizona was a first mover to assure that businesses can test, validate and scale FinTech operations through a sandbox program, and Verdigris’s selection of Greater Phoenix for its headquarters validates the importance of these cutting-edge programs,” said Chris Camacho, President & CEO, Greater Phoenix Economic Council. “By working together, we can always accomplish more, and we’re excited that Verdigris’s innovative approach to banking will benefit Greater Phoenix’s residents, businesses and economy.”
