What Valley National Bancorp does

New Jersey-based regional bank offering consumer and commercial banking across the NY/NJ metro area, Florida and Alabama.

Earns mostly the gap between interest on loans and what it pays on deposits, with commercial real estate and other business loans making up the biggest part of the book, and fees from wealth management and mortgage services adding a smaller layer. It bought Bank Leumi USA in 2022, a New York-focused business bank. The New York and New Jersey area remains the base.
