Miguel Boscan and Andy Pino bring three decades of combined experience to one of Florida’s fastest-growing financial institutions

Professional Bank, one of Florida’s fastest-growing financial institutions, has bolstered its expanding team of senior bankers with the addition of Miguel Boscan and Andres “Andy” Pino. The duo joins as Senior Vice Presidents with a specialty in private banking.

Boscan and Pino bring a combined three decades of banking experience to Professional Bank. They will eventually operate out of the Bank’s new location in Doral which will be determined in the coming weeks. In the meantime, Boscan and Pino will be based in Coral Gables.

Both bankers cited Professional Bank’s attractive growth, corporate culture and flexible approach to meeting client needs as key drivers for their decision to join the Bank. Each banker has significant experience in commercial and commercial real estate lending, as well as private banking.

“We are so excited to strengthen our team of veteran bankers with Miguel and Andy coming on board,” said Abel L. Iglesias, President and CEO of Professional Bank. “Both are extremely well-respected in the industry and provide impeccable service to their clients. They will be tremendous assets in our physical expansion into Doral.”

Boscan began his banking career in 2002, spending significant time at Ocean Bank within the Credit Analysis Department which created the foundation for his roles within the Corporate Lending Division at both Ocean Bank and TotalBank. He held roles that included commercial and commercial real estate lending before joining Gibraltar Private Bank & Trust in 2016. Gibraltar was acquired by IBERIABANK in March 2018.

Raised and educated in Miami, Boscan earned a bachelor’s degree in Finance from Florida International University and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from Nova Southeastern University.

Pino started his career at SunTrust Bank in their Commercial Real Estate Management Program, where he built a strong foundation in commercial real estate lending. He then joined Coconut Grove Bank before spending nearly a decade in various roles at Gibraltar. These roles include commercial and commercial real estate lending, construction lending and private banking. The Miami native graduated from the University of Florida with a bachelor’s degree in Finance.

The latest additions continue the momentum from an impressive second half of 2018 highlighted by the Bank surpassing $700 million in assets for the first time in its 10-year history and expanding into Cleveland with the launch of a digital innovation center. In December 2018, the Bank’s parent company raised $20 million in new capital that is being used to invest in new locations, technology and talent.
