Description: PFIS Peoples Fin

Peoples Financial Services Corp. (PFIS) is the bank holding company for Peoples Security Bank and Trust Company, providing commercial and retail banking services across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York. Founded in 1905 and headquartered in Moosic, Pennsylvania, the company accepts a range of deposits including money market, NOW, savings, IRA, demand deposit, and CDs, and originates residential mortgage, automobile, manufactured housing, personal, home equity, commercial real estate, working capital, and equipment loans.

In addition to core lending and deposit services, PFIS offers fiduciary and trust services, wealth management, securities brokerage, and cash management products such as remote deposit capture and ACH processing. The company serves business, non-profit, governmental, municipal agency, professional, and retail customers.

As a regional bank, PFIS operates a community-focused business model built on local deposit gathering and relationship-based lending within its tri-state footprint. Its trust and wealth management division represents a fee-income diversification strategy commonly used by community banks to reduce reliance on net interest margin, which tends to be sensitive to interest rate cycles.
