For Immediate Release

              PRIVATEBANCORP POSTS STRONG FOURTH QUARTER EARNINGS
        Earnings excluding St. Louis start-up costs, up 34 percent over
                              fourth quarter 1998

     Chicago, IL. January 31, 2000--- PrivateBancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PVTB) today
reported that net income for the fourth quarter, ended December 31, 1999, was
$977,000 or $0.20 per fully diluted share. Excluding costs associated with
start-up of operations in St. Louis, earnings for the fourth quarter ended
December 31, 1999 were $1.2 million, which represents an increase of 34 percent
over 1998 fourth quarter net income of $892,000. Fourth quarter earnings per
fully diluted share were $0.25 in 1998, the same level as in 1999, excluding the
St. Louis start up costs. The start up costs related to the previously announced
entry in the St. Louis market totaled approximately $214,000 (net of tax).

     Net income for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $2.9 million, or $0.69
per fully diluted share, compared to $3.0 million or $0.86 per fully diluted
share for the year ended December 31, 1998. Excluding the previously announced
Towne Square acquisition-related charge (incurred in the third quarter) and the
St. Louis start-up costs, 1999 earnings were $4.5 million, an increase of 50
percent over 1998 net income. 1999 earnings per fully diluted share were $1.07,
a 24 percent increase over 1998 earnings per fully diluted share.

     "1999 was an important year for PrivateBancorp, Inc.," said Ralph B.
Mandell, Chairman, President, and CEO. "We have completed a number of
initiatives, including our initial public offering and the Towne Square St.
Charles acquisition, and announced others, such as the Johnson Bank Illinois
acquisition and our entry into the St. Louis market, which lay the groundwork
for our continued growth in the year 2000 and beyond."

                                       1

     "This year's increase in earnings, which resulted from strong loan, deposit
and trust asset growth in our existing market footprint, is a reflection of both
the attractiveness of our business strategy and the ability of our team to
execute that strategy in Chicago's competitive high net worth market. These
results give us confidence that our expansion into additional, high net worth
markets on Chicago's North Shore and in the far western suburbs, as well as our
entry into the St. Louis market, will position us for increased profitability
for PrivateBancorp in the years to come," said Mandell.

     In conjunction with its efforts to open a de novo bank in the St. Louis
market, the Company incurred start-up expenses of $214,000, (net of tax) during
the fourth quarter of 1999. The $214,000 start-up expenses represent the initial
costs of attracting an experienced management team, and related fees and
expenses incurred in connection with establishing a new federal savings bank, to
be known as The PrivateBank (St. Louis).

     Net interest income totaled $4.3 million in the fourth quarter of 1999, an
increase of 30 percent over the fourth quarter of 1998. Average earning assets
during the period were $459.9 million, an increase of 25 percent over the prior
year fourth quarter. Net interest margin averaged 3.85 percent in the fourth
quarter of 1999, versus 3.50 percent in the prior year fourth quarter. The
increase in margin is attributable primarily to the deployment of the new
capital raised in the June 30, 1999 initial public offering and to the increase
in net loans as a percentage of earning assets.

     Non-interest income for the quarter grew to $534,000, 54 percent higher
than in the fourth quarter of 1998, primarily due to a 70 percent increase in
trust fee income. Trust assets under administration totaled $730 million at
December 31, 1999 compared to $612 million at December 31, 1998.

                                       2


<PAGE>

     Non-interest expense for the fourth quarter totaled $3.2 million, an
increase of $1.0 million, or 47 percent, over the fourth quarter of 1998.
Excluding expenses associated with the St. Louis start-up, non-interest expense
increased by $0.7 million, or 33 percent. The increase in expense is primarily
attributable to staffing and other operating expenses associated with our new
St. Charles location, an increase in expenses inherent in operating as a public
company and higher levels of general operating expenses in line with the
overall growth of the organization.

     Loan growth during 1999 was extremely strong. Net loans outstanding
increased to $392.8 million at December 31, 1999, an increase of 41 percent over
the $278.6 million in net loans outstanding at December 31, 1998. At December
31, 1999, nonperforming loans as a percentage of loans were 0.21 percent, versus
0.36 percent at December 31, 1998. Charge-offs totaled $6,000 in the quarter
ended December 31, 1999 versus zero in the year earlier period. The provision
for loan losses was $437,000 in the fourth quarter of 1999, versus $ 90,000 in
the fourth quarter of 1998; the increased provision primarily reflects the risk
inherent in a higher level of loans outstanding.

     PrivateBancorp, Inc. was organized in 1989 to provide highly personalized
financial services primarily to affluent individuals, professionals, owners of
closely held businesses and commercial real estate investors through its bank
subsidiary, The PrivateBank and Trust Company. The Company, which has assets of
$519 million at December 31, 1999, operates offices in Chicago, Oak Brook and
Wilmette, Illinois, and opened its St. Charles, Illinois office in January 2000.

     On October 4, 1999, PrivateBancorp, Inc. entered into a definitive
agreement to acquire Johnson Bank Illinois, a unit of Johnson International,
Racine, Wisconsin. Johnson Bank Illinois, with roughly $113 million in assets at
December 31, 1999, has locations on Chicago's North Shore in Lake Forest and
Winnetka. Pending regulatory approval, the acquisition of Johnson Bank Illinois
is expected to be completed in February 2000.

     On November 18, 1999, PrivateBancorp, Inc. announced that it had filed an
application to charter a new federal savings bank, to be known as The
PrivateBank (St. Louis). Pending regulatory approval of this new subsidiary, our
existing bank subsidiary, The PrivateBank and Trust Company has opened a loan
production office in St. Louis in order to develop credit business.
