Wallis Bank Ranked 13th in Independent Banker's Best of the Best List
HOUSTON, May 19, 2021 (Newswire.com) - Wallis Bank, a full-service community bank, was recently recognized by Independent Banker, a trusted source for banking news, insights, and trends published by the Independent Community Bankers of America® (ICBA). The Bank was ranked 13th among Independent Banker's annual America's Best Performing Community Banks, or simply referred to as the "Best of the Best" list, with more than $1 billion in assets.
According to independentbanker.org, community banks must have a rating of C or higher to be considered for these rankings. Those community banks were divided into three vast segments based on asset size. Each segment was then ranked using ICBA's three-year weighted average of return-on-assets (ROA). After calculating the three-year average of pre-tax ROA, Wallis Bank was positioned at 13 on its segment with more than $1 billion in assets.
Wallis Bank was previously recognized multiple times in the $3 million to $1 billion category; the Bank recently entered into the $1 billion to $3 billion in assets group. Wallis Bank is proud to be recognized as a top performer in this new category and by such a prestigious online news source. The Bank looks forward to continuing its dedication to providing superior solutions and service for its customers.
