The PrivateBank announced Jean Page has joined as Managing Director and will focus on new business development for asset-based lending in the southeastern United States.

“We are pleased to add Jean to the team as we work to better serve our clients and grow our business,” said Bruce Denby, co-head of Asset-based Lending at The PrivateBank.  "We understand the opportunities and challenges, facing companies today.
