What type of bank should I start with which types of loans?

I have about 5 million in personal cash set aside for a business investment. I also have access to a large number of high net worth individuals and banking contacts I have a background in finance. I am looking to open up some type of a bank/commercial/mezzanine financing, real estate loans etc.

Does anyone know what sort of strategies might be good to look at, assuming I can garner a total of 10 million in capital to start something up? I am looking for a medium to low risk venture with profit margins north of 10%.
