Johnson Bank to Expand into Ozaukee County
Milwaukee, WI. April 3, 2014—Peter X. Engel, Executive Vice President of Consumer Banking for Johnson Financial Group, announced Johnson Bank has filed an application to open a branch at 1555 West Mequon Road in Mequon.
“We are a strong financial partner to businesses and the people who work and live in the greater Milwaukee area. Our new location in Mequon further demonstrates our commitment to this area and to Ozaukee County,” said Engel.
The branch is expected to be open for business in late Fall 2014 after receipt of regulatory approvals.
“Area residents will soon have access to a broad range of financial services including banking, wealth and insurance. Our privately held status and local ownership provide our customers responsive assistance and helpful advice with a long term view that only a privately held company can deliver,” added Engel.
“Our ability to offer local decision making, personalized service and customized solutions presents a unique opportunity for businesses and residents in Ozaukee County,” said Gus Hernandez, Regional President, Milwaukee.
“In addition to giving our existing clients another option to do their banking, our financial expertise and focus on building long term relationships offers another choice to this market. We are very excited to be entering Ozaukee County,” added Hernandez.
“We look forward to working closely with the residents, businesses and community leaders in Mequon,” said Engel.
