GAHANNA, Ohio, May 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading business
management publication American Banker Magazine has just
released its annual list of the Top 200 Community Banks and Thrifts
in the nation. For the fourth consecutive year, Gahanna based Heartland BancCorp was ranked in
the top 100, this year at #86. Eleven community banks
from Ohio made the Top 200 list
this year and Heartland BancCorp was the only Columbus based
community bank listed. The Top 200 performers are based
on their average return on equity over the past three years.
President and CEO of Heartland Bank, G.
Scott McComb stated, "We choose to believe that the
community bank model has its best days ahead of it, and we preach
that positive message often to our community bankers. The
recent consolidation in the Central
Ohio banking landscape to out of town banks, creates
opportunity for Heartland to partner with those clients who
still seek a local community banking relationship."
