ConnectOne Bank, a leading commercial bank in the NY/NJ region is expanding its reach with a banking team in West Palm Beach Florida. This is a natural progression for ConnectOne to further support NY Metro-based clients who already have a presence in this market. Plans are to open a permanent banking office in the early part of 2022. Jack Buell will lead the Market Team as Managing Director/Director of Commercial Lending-Florida Market for ConnectOne Bank. Danielle Webel has also joined ConnectOne Bank as SVP/Commercial Loan Officer Florida Market. Jack and Danielle will support ConnectOne's growing client base in South Florida, while continuing to build the team to provide commercial real estate, C&I, deposit and cash management products.
