# Peapack Private Bank & Trust

Tri-state private bank, SBA a line item.

A Bedminster, New Jersey private bank serving the New York metro, whose small-business page lists SBA loans among its products and states no SBA status. Its commercial page names acquisition financing and sponsor finance, and its professional services desk lends $3 to $25 million including partner buy-ins.

## At a Glance

The loan file ranks it second in New Jersey and its own pages say almost nothing about SBA lending, so the desk to call about is the professional services one, which publishes its band.

## What It Costs

Loan products; terms by term sheet. Nothing is published for the SBA loan; its professional services desk publishes $3 to $25 million and its equipment desk $1 to $25 million (per peapackprivate.com, September 2026).

## Best For

A buyer in the New York tri-state area whose deal is a professional practice or a partner buy-in, since that is the desk this bank sizes

## Pros and Cons

- Pro: Names acquisition financing, [sponsor finance](https://searchspheresource.com/glossary/sponsor-finance) and succession plans on its commercial lending page
- Pro: Publishes a loan band, $3 to $25 million, for professional services firms including practice buyouts and partner capital loans
- Pro: A dedicated email route for small business lending
- Con: States no SBA status anywhere; the SBA loan is a list item and a checkbox
- Con: Its contact form asks the size of your investment portfolio on the same form that offers the SBA loan as a checkbox
- Con: Its markets are the New York metro and New Jersey by its own pages, with no state list; its equipment desk lends to U.S. based companies outside that footprint
- Con: Names no [search fund](https://searchspheresource.com/glossary/search-fund), [searcher](https://searchspheresource.com/glossary/searcher) or acquisition entrepreneur

## What Searchers Say
