“We are honored to receive this prestigious recognition, underscoring how Bremer continues to carry out and invest in its purpose – instilled in us by our founder, Otto Bremer – of cultivating thriving communities,” said Bremer Bank President and CEO Jeanne Crain. “As we celebrate our 80th anniversary, we are proud to partner with our customers and the marketplace to provide our solutions, expertise, and our interest in building relationships.”
The 2023 Best-In-State Banks were identified by Forbes and Statista based on two sources:
An independent survey: Approximately 26,000 U.S. consumers were asked to rate banks at which they have or previously have had checking/savings accounts. Participants made recommendations regarding overall satisfaction and assessed banks in the following areas: Trust, Terms & Conditions, Branch Services, Digital Services, Customer Service, and Financial Advice.
Publicly available reviews: For each bank in each state, a sentiment analysis approach of publicly available online text reviews and ratings was applied.
