The summer of 2024 brought a successful stretch of loan closings for the Wintrust Denver Commercial Banking team, with over $90 million in loan commitments across commercial real estate and middle market clients.

“As we approach our third year in Denver, our mission continues to bring to the market what Wintrust is known for — strong community engagement, reliability, knowledgeable bankers, and a dedicated team focused on client partnership and advocacy,” says Colorado Market President Andy Kolos. “We are excited to become an integral part of the Colorado community and look forward to contributing to its growth and success.”

Extending their reach

The Denver team has been extremely active across a wide range of projects and industries. With highly diversified loans that span far both geographically and categorically, the team has helped secure loans for developers across multifamily, retail, and self-storage asset classes across the country while also providing  a suite of treasury management products and services to their clients. Additionally, they’ve onboarded seven new middle market relationships, ranging from industrial manufacturers to health care and ambulatory services from the Midwest to the Front Range of Colorado.

“Our proactive stance allows us to navigate the complexities of the current economic landscape effectively,” said Justin Carter, Middle Market Team Lead. “By staying ahead of market trends and continuously refining our strategies, we ensure we can offer our clients the best possible outcomes. Finding creative lending solutions and providing flexibility has been crucial in addressing our clients’ unique challenges today.”

 Supporting clients with a strong team

“The dedication and hard work of our team have been instrumental in our success,” says Colorado Managing Director Malcolm Evans. “We are proud of the collaborative spirit that drives our efforts and enables us to deliver exceptional results. As we continue to move forward, we remain committed to providing unparalleled support to our clients and helping them seize new growth opportunities.”

Wintrust Denver has continued to grow its team with the middle market addition Vice President Zac Zavich over this same time frame as well.
