Berkshire Hills Bancorp, Inc. is the bank holding company for Berkshire Bank, a community-focused financial institution serving customers across the northeastern United States. The company traces its roots to the First National Bank of North Adams in Massachusetts, dating back to the mid-19th century. Over time, a series of mergers and acquisitions led to the formation of Berkshire Hills Bancorp in the early 2000s, enabling the franchise to expand its footprint throughout Massachusetts, New York, Connecticut, Vermont and eastern Pennsylvania.
The company’s core operations center on commercial and retail banking services, including deposit accounts, business and consumer lending, mortgage origination and construction financing. In addition to traditional interest-earning products, Berkshire Hills Bancorp offers treasury and cash‐management solutions for small and middle-market enterprises, alongside digital banking platforms designed to support both individual and corporate customers. The institution also delivers wealth management, trust services and insurance products through its dedicated subsidiary businesses.
Berkshire Hills Bancorp is led by President and Chief Executive Officer Richard S. Marotta, supported by a senior management team with extensive experience in regional banking and financial services. Headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, the company emphasizes community engagement and local decision-making, aiming to balance personalized service with the operational scale needed to compete in an expanding multi-state market.
