More than 6,000 community banks currently operate in the U.S. through more than 50,000 branch locations across the nation. ‘Strategies and Best Practices of U.S. Community Banks’ is a market research study designed specifically to identify the role of community banks, the growth strategies these organizations employ, and the new opportunities in the community banking sector.

While the share of deposits made in community banks dwindled from 70% in 1994 to 12.4% in 2009; the current economic recession is proving to be a boon for these organizations . Customers are losing faith in large financial institutions, and with the failure of the ‘too big to fail’ theory, are moving their deposits back to community banks. It is the right time for community banks to capitalize on this shift and put the right programs in place to accelerate their success.

In the current recovery phase, community banks are looking for cost-effective alternatives that can be implemented quickly. Services such as internet banking, mobile banking, and remote deposit capture play an important role in enabling community banks to better serve their customers. Lack of confidence in big banks is the major factor attracting consumers towards community banks.
