CorTrust Bank has been named the top bank in South Dakota by Forbes Magazine. Part of the South Dakota fabric for almost 90 years, CorTrust Bank has locations in 16 South Dakota communities and four Twin Cities locations.

Forbes partnered with the market research firm Statista and surveyed more than 25,000 people in the U.S. about their banking relationships for the second annual look at Best-in-State Banks. Financial institutions were rated based on customer recommendations and satisfaction, as well as five key areas including trust, terms and conditions, branch services, digital services, and financial advice.

"Our commitment to our customers reaches beyond the monetary aspects and into the lives and communities in which we live, do business, and raise our families, said Jack Hopkins, CorTrust Bank President and CEO. "Recognition by Forbes Magazine shows specifically the great customer service and skills of our employees, and the impact they have in their communities. We are glad our customers see these qualities and continue to choose CorTrust as their financial partner," stated Hopkins.

CorTrust Bank is proud of their community banking roots and the value this recognition places on banking local. Providing the latest technology and meeting customers' financial needs continues to be a priority for us as we work to navigate, lead, and grow community banking in South Dakota.
