“We are honored to once again be recognized by Forbes as one of the best banks in the world,” said Curtis C. Simard, President and CEO of Bar Harbor Bank & Trust. “We have built a bank that our customers can depend on, not only from a security perspective but as a partner who can provide the resources they need to bank with ease and the guidance from experienced bankers that can help them meet their financial goals. Our approach to banking works, which is why Bar Harbor Bank & Trust is the only bank in New England to be recognized by both Forbes as one of the world’s best banks and by Newsweek as one of America’s Best Regional Banks in 2024.”
