Methodology 

To tabulate its rankings, Forbes partners with Statista, a national market research firm to survey approximately 31,000 U.S. residents. According to Forbes, “Participants were asked to name all the banks and credit unions where they have a checking or savings account and evaluate these institutions based on criteria such as customer service, the quality of the financial advice representatives offer, and whether fees are transparent and reasonable. They were also asked about the ease of navigating the company website, on-location branch services, and the overall level of trust the companies inspired. Additionally, reviews and ratings posted on Google Reviews between March 2020 and April 2023 were evaluated for credit unions.”
