BauerFinancial 5-Star Rating for Strength and Stability Again Awarded to Chelsea Groton Bank

 BauerFinancial, Inc., the Nation’s Premier Bank Rating Firm, announced Chelsea Groton Bank has earned its highest, 5-Star rating for 117 consecutive quarters. Having maintained its financial strength and stability through three recessions, a housing bubble, and a pandemic, Chelsea Groton has also earned a “Best of Bauer Bank” designation, an honor reserved solely for those banks that have earned and maintained a 5-Star Rating for 100 consecutive quarters or longer. This latest rating was awarded in June 2023 based on March 31, 2023 financial data and signifies that Chelsea Groton Bank continues to be one of the strongest banks in the nation. 
 
“Bank with an institution that you can trust will be there for you when you need it,” suggests Karen Dorway, president of BauerFinancial. “We’ve all seen what can happen. Banks that are not well-rounded can run into trouble in a very short time. BauerFinancial’s star-ratings take into account a broad range of current and historical data to minimize that risk. That’s how Chelsea Groton’s continued 5-Star status differentiates it from other banks you may have heard about in the news... who you bank with does matter.”
