8.25.25
Pioneer Bancorp (NASDAQ: PBFS) has been recognized by Bank Director as one of the nation’s top-performing banks under $5 billion in assets, ranking #40 in the 2025 RankingBanking® report.
"What makes a top performing bank? It’s a question that Bank Director tackles every year, and a few themes emerge.
One could be that the bank has a unique strategy that it has mastered. 'I think it’s more important that you stick with your strategy,' says Kara Baldwin, a partner and the financial services audit leader at Crowe. 'What’s your bank’s vision, and what is the strategy to get there? If you’re going to have something that’s novel and unique, be the best at that.'"
