If you are super HNW, banks would provide ultra low interest loans to their clients. I recall First Republic was only charging like 1% to tech billionaires who wanted to borrow against their shares vs sell and trigger capital gains.

Of course, we know what happened to SVB and First Republic…so you have to be careful.

What is your mortgage rate?

What services do you require?

Fidelity, RH, and Capital One. There's absolutely nothing banks can offer me that's worth taking. They can go to the way of dinosaurs.
I also have Citibank and Vanguard unfortunately.

Have never seen any substantive benefits from "private banking" that are more than my TD Bank Beyond checking account, combined with Vanguard/Fidelity for brokerage accounts.

Split between Fidelity CMA and Merrill/BoA. Mortgage, bills, tuition all come out of Fidelity. Money earmarked for those things stay in SPAXX and gets auto-liquidated when the bill is paid out. Brokerage account for after-tax savings.

Daily spending is at BoA, for the souped up rewards card and easy ATM access. Retirement accounts split between Fidelity and Merrill.
