New York-based Signature Bank has appointed a new private client banking team, based at its White Plains, NY, office in Westchester County.

David Pilossoph and Marie Moreno were both named group director and senior vice president.

Pilossoph has spent 35 years at Citibank in the Westchester area, most recently as vice president and branch manager at its Main Street branch in White Plains - a role he held for 23 years.

Moreno was a vice president and branch manager at Citibank's Mamaroneck Avenue branch in White Plains, where she focused on business banking, primarily for professional services entities. Before being promoted to this branch manager role, she worked with Pilossoph for nearly two decades.

Diane Fracasse will join Pilossoph and Moreno as a senior client associate. Fracasse was assistant branch manager for Pilossoph at the White Plains branch, where she provided sales, service and operational support.

In a very similar move last month, Signature Bank brought in three private client banking teams - also formerly of Citibank - in Manhattan, Great Neck and Brooklyn, NY. Likewise, in March two private client banking teams were hired, again
from Citibank, to operate from a new private client office, which at the
time it said was being planned in Staten Island, NY.
