LA GRANGE - Fayette Savings Bank, La Grange, is proud to announce it is starting 2026 with another 5-Star Superior rating from BauerFinancial, the Nation’s Premier Bank Rating Firm. A 5-Star Superior rating indicates that Fayette Savings Bank is one of the strongest banks in the nation, excelling in areas of capital, loan quality, stability and more. This marks the 78th consecutive quarter that Fayette Savings Bank has earned this top rating, (that’s over 19 years!), which secures it an even more elite status as an “Exceptional Performance Bank”, an honor reserved solely for banks that have maintained a 5-Star rating for ten years (40 consecutive quarters) or longer.
“Because community banks put their focus on local people and small businesses, they are perfectly positioned to provide the specialized support that is unique to their area,” assures Karen L. Dorway, president of BauerFinancial. “Community banks, like Fayette Savings Bank, promote local growth by investing back into the same neighborhoods their deposits come from.
By fostering these local relationships, they accomplish two goals: they are highly capitalized, and they are accountable to their customers.”
Established in 1976, Fayette Savings Bank has been reinvesting in its local communities for 50 years.
Today, its focus remains as it always has, to meet the needs of its customers, even as those needs evolve. Visit fayettesavings.com.
