Fort Atkinson, WI - PremierBank has earned Bauer Financial, Inc.’s highest (5-Star) rating for financial strength and stability. Achievement of this coveted 5-Star Superior rating puts PremierBank in an elite category as one of the strongest banks in the nation. A 5-Star rating indicates PremierBank consistently excels in areas of capital adequacy, profitability, asset quality and much more. This is the 128th consecutive quarter that PremierBank has earned a recommended rating (5-Stars or 4-Stars) from Bauer.
“One thing that has been made clear in the past year-and-a-half is that a bank is neither a building nor technology. While both are good and necessary, it’s the people behind the walls and technology that make a bank what it is. They are also what has made PremierBank such an invaluable resource for the community. Community banks, like PremierBank, help their neighbors through the good times and the bad," notes Karen Dorway, president of BauerFinancial.
