Signature Bank Opens Private Client Office in Greenwich

Signature Bank, a New York-based full-service commercial bank, has opened a private client banking office in Greenwich at 75 Holly Hill Ln.

A three-person private client banking team led by Group Director and Senior Vice President Thomas P. Mooney will be based at the Greenwich office. The team has worked in the Fairfield County area for many years. Prior to the Greenwich office opening last week, the team worked from Signature Bank’s White Plains, NY private client banking office.

Mooney spent the past 10 years at JPMorgan Chase as Northeast Region Recruiting Manager, handling recruitment for the entire Northeast and as a District Manager, based in Fairfield, serving affluent business and personal clients.

Joining Mooney are Richard Carr and Joseph Cambareri, who all worked together at their former institution.

A 25-year veteran in the banking industry, Carr is associate group director and vice president. He previously was Branch Manager and Vice President for JPMorgan Chase in Ridgefield. He also was a financial advisor to affluent clients while formerly working for Bear Stearns.

Cambareri, with 12 years of banking experience, is the team’s relationship manager, focused on serving commercial clients and providing operational support. Previously, he held various banking positions including branch manager at several JPMorgan Chase Connecticut branches, including those in Westport, Wilton and Greenfield Hill in Fairfield. He managed teams of bankers that delivered private client banking services.

In conjunction with the opening of the Greenwich private client banking office, Susan Gladstone and Dorothy Fronio both joined Signature Bank.

Gladstone joined the Greenwich office after having spent her entire 29-year banking career at JPMorgan Chase and predecessor banks to that institution. She recently was Assistant Branch Manager and Assistant Vice in the Greenwich branch overseeing the entire branch operations.

Fronio, with 40 years of branch banking experience, serves as Assistant Financial Center Manager/Head Teller. Her entire career was spent at JPMorgan Chase and banks acquired by the firm over the years.

“We are also excited to enter into new territory by extending the Bank’s presence and introducing services to Fairfield County, having established our proven single-point-of-contact banking model throughout the New York metropolitan area. The Connecticut market is home to many privately held businesses, the market niche to which we cater and best serve through our distinctive approach to commercial, relationship-based banking,” Signature Bank President and CEO Joseph J. DePaolo said in a statement.

The opening of the Greenwich office is Signature’s 29th private client banking office in the metro-New York area.
