BankUnited invests in New York Jets partnership

Florida-based savings and loans association BankUnited has entered into a sponsorship agreement with NFL American football team the New York Jets.

BankUnited is now the official private banking partner of the Jets for the 2013 season and will benefit from signage at its MetLife Stadium.

The group is looking to underscore its commitment to the New York metropolitan area, where it currently has four banking centres.

New York Jets last night suffered a 13-10 defeat to New England Patriots to go 1-1 for the 2013 NFL season.
