Wintrust to open bank in Florida
ROSEMONT - Wintrust announced it will be opening a new bank location in Naples, Florida in early 2019 - the first Wintrust Community Bank located outside its Midwest footprint.
The new branch, Wintrust Banking Center, 401 Tamiami Trail North, Naples, FL, will allow current customers who travel to, or live in, Florida during the winter season to access their finances and banking services Wintrust offers year round.
Wintrust Banking Center will operate under Lake Forest Bank & Trust Company, N.A., one of Wintrust's charter banks. Two veteran Wintrust employees, Tara Fedorko and Wendy Aguilera, will be branch manager and assistant branch manager at the Wintrust Banking Center.
"We're looking forward to entering the Florida market," said Wintrust President, CEO, and Founder Edward J. Wehmer. "Our commitment to supporting local businesses and organizations is integral to who we are, so we look forward to developing relationships in the Naples community."
