Rockland Trust Co. in Massachusetts has hired a team of asset-based lenders away from Webster Bank of Waterbury, Conn.
The Boston Business Journal reported Monday that former Webster banker Chris O'Connor joined Rockland Trust earlier this month and that he will lead a team of four lenders also recruited from Webster.
Rockland Trust, with $4.8 billion of assets, is the banking subsidiary of Independent Bank Corp. Webster, with $18 billion of assets, operates mainly in Connecticut, but it has been expanding in eastern Massachusetts since acquiring a bank there in 2004.
