Chelsea Groton Bank has once again earned recognition from BauerFinancial, Inc., the nation’s leading bank rating firm, for maintaining its prestigious 5-Star rating for strength in capital, loan quality, stability, and more. December 2025 marks the 127th consecutive quarter, an accumulated 31 years, that Chelsea Groton Bank has earned this distinction, which gives it the added prestige of being a “Best of Bauer Bank”.
“Because community banks put their focus on local people and small businesses, they are perfectly positioned to provide the specialized support that is unique to their area,” assures Karen L. Dorway, president of BauerFinancial. “Community banks, like Chelsea Groton Bank, promote local growth by investing back into the same neighborhoods their deposits come from. By fostering these local relationships, they accomplish two goals: they are highly capitalized, and they are accountable to their customers.”
Since 1854, Chelsea Groton Bank has remained deeply committed to supporting individuals and organizations throughout the communities it serves. Learn more at www.chelseagroton.com.
