Northern Trust Named Best Private Bank in U.S.

Also Received Top Honors for Best Private Bank in North America for Entrepreneurs and Alternatives

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Northern Trust, a leading provider of wealth management services, has taken top honors in three categories from Professional Wealth Management and The Banker magazines, publications of the Financial Times Group:

• “Best Private Bank in the U.S.”
• “Best Private Bank in North America for Entrepreneurs”
• “Best Private Bank in North America for Alternatives”

With this latest recognition, Northern Trust becomes a 14-time winner of “Best Private Bank in the U.S.,” underscoring its leadership in wealth management and enduring commitment to clients. The Global Private Banking Awards, created in 2009, attracted nearly 350 submissions from more than 100 banks from around the world.

Professional Wealth Management Editor-in-Chief Yuri Bender said Northern Trust’s customized approach for entrepreneurs and its proven alternative investment strategies were among the highlights.

“The Northern Trust entry found favour with the judges for its focus on helping entrepreneurs overcome innovation challenges, through coordinating peer group networks,” Bender said. “They were also impressed with the safeguarding of client portfolios against political events and the wider range of alternative assets being deployed in investment.”

The evolving wealth landscape—shaped by complex family dynamics and intergenerational transitions—continues to redefine how clients approach wealth and legacy. Northern Trust’s strength as a private bank lies in the combination of fiduciary expertise and modern investment strategies, according to Wealth Management President Jason Tyler.

“For more than a century, we have been trusted advisors to the world's most sophisticated families, delivering tailored solutions that address the full complexity of their wealth,” Tyler said. “We are proud to serve entrepreneurs, families and institutions who value both the prudence of long-term stewardship and the innovation needed to capture new opportunities.”
