South Bend, Ind. (April 23, 2024) – 1st Source Bank is pleased to announce their #14 ranking on Forbes’ America’s Best Banks list. The list, according to Forbes includes 100 of the nation’s top banks, based on 10 financial metrics “measuring growth, credit quality and profitability for the 2023 calendar year, as well as stock performance in the 12 months through March 18, 2024.” 1st Source is one of only five banks based in Indiana that made the list, and the only bank in Indiana that ranked in the top 15.

“To be ranked the 14th Best Bank in America and the top bank in Indiana by Forbes is an honor,” said Chris J Murphy III, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of 1st Source Corporation and Chairman of 1st Source Bank. “It is a result of the long-standing commitment we have made to building a fortress-like balance sheet and quality sustainable earnings while staying true to our mission of helping our clients achieve security, build wealth, and realize their dreams.
