5-Star Amerant Bank Puts The Community in “Community Bank”

BauerFinancial awards Amerant with highest rating once again

April 1, 2021

MIAMI  Amerant Bank has once again been awarded the highest (5-Star) rating for financial strength and stability from the Nation’s Premier Bank Rating Firm, BauerFinancial, Inc.

In order to earn a 5-Star rating, all institutions undergo a rigorous, independent analysis of their financial condition. Amerant Bank came out on top, which means it has the strength to support its members as it consistently excels in areas such as capital strength, profitability, asset quality, and much more. This is the 32nd consecutive quarter that Amerant Bank has earned this top rating.

“One thing that has been made clear in the past year and a half is that a financial institution is much more than just a building, and also more than just technology. While both are good and necessary, it’s the people behind the walls and technology that make the real difference. These same people are also what makes Amerant Bank such an invaluable resource for the community. Amerant Bank’s employees have shown tremendous dedication and commitment to both customers and the community”, notes Karen Dorway, president of BauerFinancial. “Community banks, like Amerant Bank, help their neighbors through the good times and the bad. And Amerant Bank’s employees have done an admirable job, maintaining an unblemished balance sheet all the while.”
