Banks & Thrifts
Whether you're managing your employer's funds, a client's savings, or simply looking out
for your own well-being, Weiss Ratings is the place to turn for identifying the truly safest
financial institutions to do business with.
Every quarter, we monitor the financial safety of more than 7,800 commercial banks, savings banks, and savings and loans across the nation. We then issue the Weiss Financial Strength Ratings based on our analysts’ review of publicly available information collected by the federal banking regulators.
Our rating scale is straightforward and easy to understand. There are no confusing number
grades to interpret, no colored paper to decode, and no stars to count. Instead, you get
a simple, intuitive letter grade that immediately identifies the wheat from the chaff.
We are extremely proud of our superior rating methodology and our track record for identifying and warning the public about troubled banks and thrifts before they fail. So, whether you:
- are concerned about the safety of your CD or savings account;
- need to be sure that an existing line of credit will be there when you need it;
- are responsible for your employer's funds or municipal funds deposited with a local bank; or
- simply want to avoid the hassles and uncertainties of dealing with a failing or troubled institution
…the Weiss Financial Strength Ratings can help you. For more peace of mind, be sure to consult our
free list of the strongest and weakest banks and thrifts
in the nation. In addition, unlimited access to the one-page reports for all 7,700 rated banks and thrifts puts this valuable information at your fingertips at all times.
