CapitalMark Bank & Trust has earned a top 5-Star rating from BauerFinancial for the 11th consecutive quarter.

The Chattanooga bank was recognized for its financial strength, stability and overall performance. BauerFinancial is an independent rating and research firm out of Coral Gables, Florida, that analyzes the performance of U.S. banks and credit unions. The agency only awards 5-Star ratings to institutions it identifies as the strongest in the nation.

"We are seeing the positive results our model and dedicated Banker Teams are producing," Banking Group President Kenny Dyer said.

The CapitalMark model aligns one Banker Team per client for all their business and personal banking needs and deploys technology and courier services to bring banking to the client.

"Not only are the Banker Teams able to see a full financial snapshot with the One-Banker model, they are empowered to customize banking solutions and use local decision making to ultimately better serve the client," Dyer said. "Our ability to be nimble and responsive combined with local decision making especially benefits our commercial clients because we can apply local market knowledge to better understand a client's unique financial situation."
