Leading financial services consulting and research firm Greenwich
Associates has recognized U.S. Bank on its debut list of Best Brands in
U.S. Small Business and Middle Market Banking. Additionally, across
small business and middle market banking, U.S. Bank was named a
Greenwich Best Brand for Loans or Lines of Credit, Cash Management, and
Ease of Doing Business. U.S. Bank earned Best Brand for Trust in the
middle market category.
Greenwich Associates conducted interviews with more than 17,000
decision-makers for banking services at small businesses and nearly
14,000 interviews with middle-market companies annually. The winners are
cited most frequently by these companies as banks they would consider
using for any business or commercial banking product.
“At U.S. Bank we strive to provide our customers with superior products
and services,” said Richard Payne, vice chairman of Wholesale Banking
for U.S. Bank. “This recognition by Greenwich Associates is an honor and
confirms that our customers have confidence in our company, our people,
our products and our services.”
Greenwich Associates noted that trust continues to be an important
factor for businesses in choosing a bank, and this year the ease of
doing business with the bank became increasingly important factor. They
say that with increased documentation requirements, banks that make
applying for and receiving a loan an efficient and painless process are
going to perform well in business customer satisfaction.
