U.S. Bank Named a Best Brand for Business
U.S. Bank receives six business banking awards from research firm Greenwich Associates
U.S. Bank has been named a Best Brand for Small Business and for Middle Market Banking by leading consulting and research firm
Greenwich Associates.
U.S. Bank is among eight banks that won national Best Brand Overall awards in both the small business ($1 million to $10
million in annual sales) and Middle Market categories ($10 million to $500 million in annual sales) from Stamford-based Greenwich
Associates.
“We work hard to advocate for our clients and support their success,” said Elliot Jaffee, executive vice president and head of
commercial banking for U.S. Bank. “This recognition is external validation that our approach is making a difference for our clients
and we couldn’t be more pleased.”
The Greenwich Best Brand Awards are based on thousands of interviews conducted from January through September as part of the
Greenwich Associates Small Business and Middle Market research programs. They measure bank's reputation by company owners and
executives. To be selected as a Greenwich Best Brand winner, a bank must have a score for a particular service that is
statistically higher than the industry average.
U.S. Bank was recognized as a Best Brand in six categories: Overall, Loans or Lines of Credit, and Cash
Management for Small Business and Overall, Loans or Lines of Credit and Cash Management for Middle
Market.
“U.S. Bank employees are committed to providing great service to small business customers and it’s nice to have that effort show
through in brand reputation surveys like this,” said Ross Carey, U.S. Bank’s head of business banking.
U.S. Bank meets the needs of small businesses with a wide range of products and services that include deposit accounts and cash
flow management, card payment and acceptance tools, equipment leasing and wealth management. It was the third largest lender of SBA loans in the country in fiscal 2016 with $838 million in volume.
MONEY Magazine and Nerdwallet also recently recognized the U.S. Bank Business Edge™ Platinum credit card as a “Best for Borrowing” in the Small
