Abstract generation in progress

Citizens Bank plans to significantly expand its private banking unit by adding at least five private wealth teams and five new offices this year. The regional bank aims to target high-net-worth clients with liquid assets of $2 million or more, differentiating itself through integrated “white-glove” service and a single point of contact for clients’ business and personal banking needs. This expansion follows Citizens’ unsuccessful bids for failed regional banks but leverages its acquisition of 50 private bankers from First Republic, focusing on a service-centric model to capture market share.
