WAUWATOSA, Wis., Aug. 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Waterstone Financial, Inc. today announced that it received the number one ranking in Bank Director’s 2021 Bank Performance Scorecard.
Bank Director’s Scorecard annually ranks the 300 largest exchange-traded banks in the United States based on the previous year’s performance.
