Dear Friends and Neighbors,
President & CEO
Welcome to Ion Bank and thank you for your interest in us and for visiting our website.
I’m David J. Rotatori, President & CEO of Ion Bank, and I’m proud to introduce you to a financial institution built on trust, innovation, and community.
Founded in 1870 as a local savings bank, Ion Bank has grown into a top-rated, technologically advanced financial institution. Today, we offer comprehensive business and personal banking, wealth management, and life insurance services to help individuals, families, and businesses succeed.
For over 155 years, our mission has remained the same – helping customers identify and achieve their financial goals through trusted partnerships and lifelong relationships.
Our culture is rooted in SARF – Safety & Security, Accuracy, Responsiveness, and Friendly Personalized Service – values that guide every interaction with our customers, community, and employees.
With 20 branches in Connecticut and 12 in New Jersey, Ion Bank proudly serves individuals, families, and businesses of all sizes—helping them grow and thrive. In 2024, we were very excited to add NVE Bank in Bergen County, NJ as a Division of Ion Bank, expanding our footprint to reach a larger audience in New Jersey.
Through our trusted family partner, Ion Investments, we offer industry-leading financial planning and wealth management services—combining expert insight with a personal touch to make important financial decisions simple and accessible.
As a mutually held community bank not owned by shareholders, we reinvest in the neighborhoods we serve. In 2025 alone, the Ion Bank Foundation awarded $1.1 million in grants to local nonprofits, bringing our total giving to over $13.9 million since 1998.
If you’re not yet banking with us, we hope to have the opportunity to serve you soon with excellence in banking, wealth management, and life insurance, always delivered with personal attention and outstanding service.
I invite you to contact us at online@ionbank.com, web chat at ionbank.com, 203.729.4442 or visit any of our locations and get to know us better. We’d love the opportunity to earn your trust.
Thank You,
David J. Rotatori
President & Chief Executive Officer
