Intracoastal Bank Ranked an Optimal Performer in 2016 by Seifried & Brew

PALM COAST, Fla. - April 19, 2017 - PRLog -- Seifried & Brew, LLC, a community bank consulting and risk management firm, ranks Intracoastal Bank as a high-performing bank in its prestigious 2016 S&B Top 15th Percentile.

This designation is assigned to banks whose overall performance ranks them within the top 15 percent of all community banks in the nation. To receive this distinguished honor, Intracoastal Bank demonstrated exemplary performance by managing their exposure to risk while maintaining a notable level of reward.

"Being part of the Top 15th Percentile is a great accomplishment…and is no small feat!" says Jamie Sumner, chief analyst of Seifried and Brew, LLC. "In fact, this designation shows that these banks have been able to optimally balance risk and reward throughout 2016."

The S&B Top 15th Percentile ranking has been released every year since 2011. Whereas other organizations rank bank performance, the S&B composite score takes into consideration both risk and reward.
