Community First Bank (CFB) has been recognized atop the Forbes’ annual list of America’s Best-In-State Banks and Credit Unions 2020. This prestigious award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The awards list was announced on June 25th and can currently be viewed on the Forbes website.

Forbes Best-In-State Banks and Credit Unions 2020 is comprised of the top banks and credit unions based on the results of independent surveys involving approximately 25,000 U.S. consumers who were asked to rate the financial institutions at which they have or have had checking accounts.

CFB President & CEO Dan Klahn said, “We are extremely pleased and honored to receive the Forbes’ Best-In-State Bank for Wisconsin.  This is a direct reflection of our entire team’s hard work and commitment to helping our customers and communities thrive.”

Participants of the survey rated their financial institutions based on overall satisfaction, trust, terms and conditions, branch services, digital services, and financial advice. Based on the results of the study, CFB is ecstatic to be recognized not only on Forbes’ 2020 list of America’s Best-In-State Banks, but as the highest-ranking bank in the state of Wisconsin.

“Being recognized atop the Forbes’ list of America’s Best-In-State Banks is quite an accomplishment in today’s everchanging banking world,” said Kevin Raisbeck, CFB Chief Lending & Business Development Officer. “I am proud to have joined this locally owned and locally managed organization and look forward to working with the CFB team as we continue to meet and exceed the expectations of our customers.”

CFB Commercial/Ag Banker Shari Zenz said, “I enjoy working for an employee-owned bank whose employees strive every day to bring value to our customers and communities.”  

“It’s quite an honor being recognized as the Forbes’ Best-In-State Bank for the great state of Wisconsin,” said Joe Friar, CFB Business Banker & Market Manager. “I’m proud to be part of this locally-owned community bank.”

Community First Bank has locations in Baraboo, Boscobel, Fennimore, Livingston, Muscoda, Platteville, Prairie du Chien, Reedsburg, and Richland Center, and has served their communities’ needs since 1851.
