Lakeland Bank

Lakeland Bank was a community bank headquartered in Montville, New Jersey, that merged with Provident Financial Services in 2024 and now operates as part of Provident Bank. Prior to the merger, Lakeland served customers across northern and central New Jersey with personal and business banking products.

Following the 2024 completion of the merger with Provident Financial Services, customers of Lakeland Bank have transitioned to Provident Bank accounts and products. The combined institution operates as Provident Bank and serves New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.

For consumers who were Lakeland Bank customers, the transition means working with Provident Bank going forward. Provident Bank offers checking and savings accounts, home mortgages, personal loans, and commercial lending services.

Consumers looking to open new accounts or apply for loans should contact Provident Bank directly, as the Lakeland Bank brand and separate operations no longer exist as a standalone institution.

Consumers who had accounts at Lakeland Bank should contact Provident Bank to understand how their accounts have transitioned and what products are now available to them. The Provident Bank website and branches can provide current information on account terms and any changes resulting from the merger.

Customers who had existing loans or mortgages through Lakeland Bank should contact Provident Bank to confirm loan terms and servicing arrangements going forward. Provident Bank's combined network provides broader coverage across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.

Provident Bank is FDIC-insured and deposits are covered up to applicable limits. Rates, fees, and product availability vary by individual circumstances and location.
