KAUKAUNA — The Bank of Kaukauna has been named one of the top 20 commercial lenders of $300 million and under in this month’s issue of Independent Banker magazine published by the Independent Community Bankers of America trade group.
“Community banks are pillars of their communities and work hard every day to serve the unique needs of their local customers,” ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said in a news release. “These top lenders should take pride in this recognition, knowing that their work makes a positive impact in helping their communities flourish.”
The July issue of Independent Banker highlights how these top agriculture, commercial, consumer and mortgage loan producers are navigating the evolving economic environment while meeting the needs of their customers. This year’s standout performers have demonstrated remarkable flexibility and ingenuity while maintaining strong community ties that have contributed to their success and strong, prosperous communities.
“We appreciate this recognition by ICBA’s Independent Banker, which acknowledges the value of relationship banking and is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our talented teammates,” said TJ Minnehan, president at The Bank of Kaukauna. “We’re proud to make a difference in the community and look forward to continuing to deliver for our customers.”
Using FDIC data for 2023, Independent Banker calculated a lender score out of 100 for each community bank. The score combines the average of the bank’s percentile rank for lending concentration and loan growth in each lending category over the past year, adjusted for loan charge-offs at certain percentile thresholds.
This year’s standout performers are featured in the July issue of Independent Banker magazine.
