What Beverly Bank & Trust Company does

Beverly Bank & Trust Company, N.A. is a nationally chartered community bank headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, operating as a subsidiary of Wintrust Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: WTFC). It serves retail consumers, small businesses, and mid-market commercial clients across the greater Chicago metropolitan area, with the broader Wintrust network extending to 200+ locations across Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, and Florida and holding approximately $71 billion in total parent assets. The bank operates one of 16 community bank charters within the Wintrust structure, focusing on relationship-based banking supported by physical branches and digital channels.

Its product set spans consumer deposits (checking, savings, CDs), credit cards (issued via Elan Financial Services / Visa), mortgages (via Wintrust Mortgage), HELOCs, small business banking (three checking tiers), SBA loans up to $10 million, and commercial lending verticals including asset-based lending, capital markets, and leasing. Treasury and fraud services include Positive Pay, i-BusinessBanking, cash management, and Trusteer endpoint fraud protection. The MaxSafe program is a structural differentiator, aggregating customer deposits across 16 Wintrust charters to provide up to $4 million in FDIC coverage per depositor. Wealth management is delivered through Wintrust Wealth Management and community programs such as Platinum Adventures Club and Junior Savers Club support retail deposit stickiness.

Revenue is generated primarily through net interest income on loans and securities, supplemented by deposit-related fees, MaxSafe-attracted balances, wealth management advisory fees, and mortgage origination income. The go-to-market model is relationship-led community banking: designated business bankers serve commercial and SMB clients, branches anchor retail acquisition, and digital channels (mobile app, Zelle, mobile deposit) extend reach. As a subsidiary of a publicly traded parent, Beverly Bank & Trust's financials roll up into Wintrust Financial's consolidated reporting, and charter-level revenue is not separately disclosed.
