Pittsburgh Banks Ranked Among The World's Best: Forbes

PITTSBURGH, PA - More than a half dozen of the globe’s premier financial institutions have branches in Pittsburgh, including two that are based here. That’s according to Forbes, which has issued its first-ever ranking of the world’s best banks.

Instead of gauging the balance sheets and P&L statements, as Forbes does for its ranking of the 100 largest publicly traded U.S. banks published annually in January, Forbes partnered with marketing firm Statista to survey more than 40,000 customers around the globe for their opinions on their current and former banking relationships.

Banks were rated on general satisfaction and key attributes like trust, fees, digital services and financial advice.

Of the 60 U.S. banks that made the list, seven have branches in Pittsburgh, including two that are headquartered here: PNC and Dollar Bank. The seven banks and their national ranking:

3. S&T Bank
11. First National Bank

25. First Commonwealth
27. Dollar Bank
31. PNC
42. M&T Bank
51. Citibank
