Vice President of Commercial Lending Adam Bokon

CANTON, Mass. (May 30, 2023) – Bank of Canton recently hired Adam Bokon as vice president of commercial lending. With 18 years of experience building and managing commercial loan portfolios in the Hartford and Greater Boston areas, Bokon brings substantial portfolio development and management expertise to the role.

“What I enjoy most about commercial lending are the client relationships,” said Bokon, “especially working with new clients and delivering faster, more efficient financing solutions for their projects.

“That’s why I was drawn to Bank of Canton,” he continued. “It has a very collaborative environment. The commercial lending, credit, and operations teams are all together under the same roof, and we’re willing to explore all options to get financing arrangements approved and turned around quickly. It’s a great place to be.”

Prior to joining Bank of Canton, Bokon held commercial loan officer/vice president positions at several regional banks in Massachusetts and Connecticut, where he oversaw nine-figure loan portfolios across dozens of client relationships.

“Adam is a great addition to the Bank of Canton commercial team,” said Executive Vice President Michael Lindberg. “He’s an established lender in the Greater Boston area, and he has a talent for finding solutions and adding value to his client relationships. He’s a terrific fit for our organization.”

Bokon serves on the board of directors for the Boston chapter of the Real Estate Lenders Association and the Metro West Business Alliance. He graduated from the University of Connecticut with a degree in business administration, and earned his MBA at Australia’s University of New South Wales. He lives in Wayland with his wife and two children.
