VeraBank has been ranked 38th among large U.S. community banks in S&P Global Market Intelligence's 2026 United States Community Bank Deposit Rankings. The annual ranking recognizes community banks with the strongest deposit performance in the country, evaluating financial institutions with total assets between $3 billion and $10 billion based on data as of June 30, 2026.

The recognition reflects VeraBank's ability to earn and retain stable, relationship-based deposits while maintaining operational efficiency. S&P Global Market Intelligence uses a weighted methodology that considers several factors, including non interest-bearing deposit concentration, cost of interest-bearing deposits, deposit betas, reliance on time deposits, deposit growth, deposits-to-liabilities ratios, and deposit efficiency.

"Together, these metrics highlight the strength of relationships we have built with our customers, one connection at a time. We are honored by the recognition because it reflects the confidence our customers place in us every day. Their trust is not something we take for granted," said VeraBank CEO, Brad Tidwell. “We believe community banking is built on local decisions made by bankers who know their customers and are invested in the future of the communities they serve. We are honored to be recognized among the nation's top community banks, and grateful for the relationships we’ve built along the way that made it possible."

According to S&P Global Market Intelligence, deposits represent a core measure of value and resilience for community banks. The ranking highlights financial institutions that have demonstrated the ability to build lasting relationships.

"Being named among the top large community banks in the United States is a testament to the dedication of our employees, the loyalty of our customers, the confidence of our shareholders, and support of our communities," said VeraBank President, Michael Moores. "A deposit is more than a number on our balance sheet. It often represents years of hard work, a family’s plans and the future of a local business. We never lose sight of the trust behind each relationship."

For more than 96 years, VeraBank has served its communities the same genuine way, with a relationship-based approach, staying true to its roots. This latest recognition affirms the value of that approach, and the confidence customers continue to place in the bank.
