By GlobalDataPacific Premier chairman, president and CEO Steven Gardner said: “Grandpoint is a highly attractive business banking franchise that we have known for many years and believe will be an excellent strategic and cultural fit with our existing franchise.
“The expansion of our organisation remains a key focus of our long-term strategic plan as we build Pacific Premier into the leading commercial bank headquartered in Southern California. With this acquisition, we will surpass $10bn in total assets, which we believe will allow us to further leverage our operational scale.
