Wintrust is a financial holding company in the United States that operates 15 chartered community banks in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin.[2] Wintrust is usually classified as a medium-sized banking institution in the United States and it trades on the Nasdaq Global Select Market with stock symbol WTFC. Wintrust is the second largest banking company in Chicago.[3]

Services

The company provides traditional retail and commercial banking services, as well as wealth management services, commercial and life insurance premium financing, and certain treasury management services such as data processing of payrolls and billings.[4] In 2015 Wintrust began to expand into equipment financing, both directly through its bank branches and indirectly through dealers.[5]

History

Wintrust was founded by Ed Wehmer. Wintrust was among the recipients of capital from the United States government through the U.S. Treasury's Troubled Asset Relief Program.[3][6] The bank used the 2008 financial crisis to acquire small troubled banks in the Chicago area, backed by its pre-crisis capital supplemented by TARP funds. This positioned it to become one of the area's largest retail banks by eliminating costs and deepening its geographical footprint in the area.[7] Wintrust Financial continues to expand within its footprint area.[7][8][9][10]

In 2018, Wintrust completed its acquisition of Veterans First Mortgage, a Utah-based corporation with approximately 400 employees.[11]

In May 2019, Wintrust acquired Rush-Oak Corporation, the parent company of Oak Bank, an Illinois state-chartered bank which had approximately $201 million in assets.[12] In October 2019, Wintrust acquired STC Bancshares Corp, the parent company of STC Capital Bank, an Illinois state-chartered bank with approximately $275 million in assets.[13]

In 2021, the Hinsdale Bank, a Wintrust Bank, opened the Oak Park Bank in what had been a restaurant space in a historic building.[14][15] The Oak Park Bank built a second location, new facility, in the village.[16]

In 2022, Wintrust announced a deal to acquire the U.S. asset management arm of Rothschild & Co, which held around $8 billion in assets under management at the time.[17]

On August 1, 2024, it was announced that Wintrust had completed the merger of its operations with Macatawa Bank Corporation, a company based in Holland, Michigan.[18]

Community banks

Unlike most major U.S. banks, Wintrust's business strategy is to retain the identities of the community banks it acquires rather than rebranding them. However, each community bank uses the tagline, "A Wintrust Community Bank."[19] Wintrust's 15 chartered bank subsidiaries and their respective community banks are:[20]

  • Barrington Bank & Trust Company, N.A.[21] (Hanover Park Community Bank, Hoffman Estates Community Bank, and Palatine Bank & Trust)
