Bank included in prestigious Inc. 5000

Inc. magazine includes Private Bank of Buckhead (of which Private Bank of Decatur and PrivatePlus Mortgage are divisions) on its 35th annual Inc. 5000, which recognizes the nation's fastest-growing private companies.

“Our team members, business partners and clients are the reason for our success,” says Private Bank of Decatur President Brent Adams. “And, as excited as I am for the recognition of our growth, I’m most pleased that we were able to accomplish this milestone while remaining true to the high-touch service that has been our customer proposition from the beginning. Growth is great, but quality remains our chief strategy.”

The 2016 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2012 to 2015, and includes names like Dollar Shave Club and Yeti Cooler.

The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue is $200 billion, and the companies on the list collectively generated 640,000 jobs over the past three years, or about 8% of all jobs created in the entire economy during that period.

“Our growth – on which the Inc. 5000 recognition is based – is an affirmation of our commitment to first-class service on a first-name basis,” Adams says, “and is directly attributable to our focus on providing our clients with access to bankers and mortgage lenders with decision-making authority who are fanatical about the level of service we deliver.”
