Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Reportable Segments Reportable Segments
Management Reporting
The Company has three reportable segments: Private Banking, Wealth Management and Trust, and Affiliate Partners, as well as the Parent Company (Boston Private Financial Holdings, Inc.) (the “Holding Company”). The financial performance of the Company is managed and evaluated by these three segments. The segments are managed separately as a result of the concentrations in each function.
The Company’s CEO is the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The Company’s CEO is also the CEO of the Bank which comprises the Private Banking segment. The President of Private Banking, Wealth Management and Trust oversees the Wealth Management and Trust segment and reports to the CEO of the Company. The day-to-day activities of the Company’s affiliates (within the Affiliate Partners segment) are managed by the affiliate CEOs. Executive management has authority with respect to the allocation of capital within their segments, management oversight responsibility, performance assessments, and overall authority and accountability for all of the affiliates within their segment. The Company’s CEO communicates with the affiliate CEOs and the President of Private Banking, Wealth Management and Trust regarding profit and loss responsibility, strategic planning, priority setting and other matters. The Company’s Chief Financial Officer reviews all affiliate financial detail with the CODM on a monthly basis.
Description of Reportable Segments
Private Banking
The Private Banking segment operates primarily in three geographic markets: New England, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Southern California.
The Bank currently conducts business under the name of Boston Private Bank & Trust Company in all markets. The Bank is chartered by The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and is insured by the FDIC. The Bank is principally engaged in providing private banking services to high net worth individuals, privately owned businesses and partnerships, and nonprofit organizations. In addition, the Bank is an active provider of financing for affordable housing, first-time homebuyers, economic development, social services, community revitalization and small businesses.
Wealth Management and Trust
The Wealth Management and Trust segment is comprised of the trust operations of the Bank and the operations of Boston Private Wealth. The segment offers investment management, wealth management, family office, and trust services to individuals, families, and institutions. The Wealth Management and Trust segment operates in New England, Southeast Florida, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Southern California.
Affiliate Partners

The Affiliate Partners segment is comprised of DGHM and KLS, each of which are RIAs.

DGHM serves the needs of pension funds, endowments, trusts, foundations and select institutions, mutual funds and high net worth individuals and their families throughout the United States and abroad. DGHM specializes in value-driven equity portfolios with products across the capitalization spectrum. DGHM is located in New York, with one affiliate administrative office in South Florida.

KLS provides comprehensive, planning-based financial strategies to high net worth individuals and their families, and nonprofit institutions. The services the firm offers include fee-only financial planning, tax planning, tax preparation, estate and insurance planning, retirement planning, charitable planning and intergenerational gifting and succession planning. KLS manages investments covering a wide range of asset classes for both taxable and tax-exempt portfolios. KLS is located in New York and Southern California.

The Company previously had four reportable segments whereby the Affiliate Partners segment was bifurcated into two segments: Investment Management and Wealth Advisors. At the start of 2018, both the Investment Management and Wealth Advisors segments each had two consolidated affiliates. On April 13, 2018, the Company completed the sale of its ownership interest in Anchor. Anchor was previously in the Investment Management segment. On December 3, 2018, the Company completed the sale of its ownership interest in BOS. BOS was previously in the Wealth Advisory segment. The results of Anchor and BOS for the periods owned are included in the results of the Affiliate Partners segment and the Company. See Part II.
