German American Bank has once again been awarded the prestigious Raymond James Community Bankers Cup for its performance in 2025. For fourteen years, Raymond James has presented the annual Bankers Cup to the best performing banks in the nation. German American has been recognized twelve of those fourteen years, demonstrating its commitment to building long-term shareholder value. Only nineteen community banks in the United States received this award.
“It’s an honor for our German American Bank team to receive this recognition from Raymond James,” states Neil Dauby, Chairman and CEO. “Our employees, customers, and communities are the heart of our success. Our employees strive daily to run a high-performing operation, which strengthens our ability to serve our valued customers. This financial strength also allows us to continually invest in the local communities we serve.”
The 2025 Raymond James Community Bankers Cup recognizes the top 10% of community banks with assets between $500 million and $10 billion as of December 31, 2025. The award is based on various profitability, operational efficiency, and balance sheet metrics. The pool of banks considered includes all exchange-traded domestic banks, excluding mutual holding companies. Of the 191 community banks considered for the 2025 Community Bankers Cup, the top 10% demonstrated superior performance on key financial performance and stability metrics.
