PNC Bank is expanding its private bank team in the Greater Fort Worth area, adding new members who will be responsible for delivering the full range of PNC Private Bank’s® wealth management solutions, bank officials announced on Thursday in a press release.
“Fort Worth continues to see a wealth of economic development and we have been intentional about growing our services to meet this demand,” said Dale Klose, PNC Texas and Mountain Region territory executive based in Fort Worth.
PNC Private Bank serves high-net-worth individuals and families. In addition, it provides business succession planning solutions to help family-owned and privately held businesses preserve their legacies and ultimately create a philanthropic impact throughout the region.
“Our Private Bank team adds to our larger Fort Worth presence which includes corporate, commercial, business banking, retail, public finance and institutional asset management,” said Brendan McGuire, PNC regional president for North Texas. “Now we can locally deliver the full depth and breadth of PNC’s capabilities consistent with our Main Street banking model."
Advisory teams with specialized expertise in private banking have been formed across North Texas, including a team in both Fort Worth and Dallas. Katy Rhodes
