Provident wants to be a prominent force in the New Jersey banking scene. Provident Financial Services owns The Provident Bank, which serves individuals, businesses, and families in about 10 northern and central New Jersey counties. Founded in 1839, the bank offers traditional deposit and lending products, as well as wealth management and trust services, through more than 80 branches. Commercial real estate loans and residential mortgages each make up more a quarter of the bank's loan portfolio. Business, consumer, and construction loans help to round out its lending activities. The company's Provident Investment Services subsidiary sells life and health insurance and investment products.
