The customers will be offered: core banking, along with a flexible deposit rate and terms, private loans and lines of credit. Additionally, Newburyport’s leading commercial lending team will join them to provide support and ensure that business lending needs can be met expeditiously.

According to the bank, the new banking unit has created an opportunity for those who need a specialized banking acumen and streamlined, personalized consolidation for their banking accounts. The bank is very enthusiastic about providing new offers and strengthening the relationship with the customers and is seeking to maintain the spirit forever.

 “The concept of providing superior individualized service is nothing new – the bank has been doing that for years by treating our clients exceptionally well and making them feel part of our bank family. The creation of the private client group is only natural, and the perfect fit for what we do best,” said Thomas Strikler.
