A Safe & Secure Chicago Bank Continues into 2010

2009 was an interesting year. For some it has been difficult, with the loss of jobs and homes and for others concerns about health care and security of their savings. As we begin 2010 we must consider all of these matters and then some. Liberty share's your concerns and has a strong desire to help our community through this period. We are doing what we can to help you and your family maintain your standard of living and save for the future.
First and foremost we are listening to our customers. By utilizing a series of surveys, we have received your feedback and suggestions and are eager to find ways to help you save money and time. We continue to offer the products and services that will be most beneficial to our depositors. As a community bank we want to make sure we provide information to help our customers make smart financial decisions and to avoid becoming victims of crime and fraud.
By offering workshops, seminars and social events we believe our customers are getting valuable information and tools for better living. We also continue to offer educational presentations on various topics including identity theft, elder law, estate planning, as well as free computer classes for senior citizens. The Community Corner section on the website is new for 2010 and gives visitors access to community specific information - events, photos, chambers, etc.
We have also introduced some money-savings changes that were passed along to our customers. This includes the cost for checks and how they are ordered. We also joined the MoneyPass® ATM network, increasing our available ATMs to over 48,000 nationwide. This allows you to save both time and money by utilizing more ATMs throughout the Chicago area.

In 2010 you may still be reading about troubled Chicago banks and a tight credit market, but things continue to be different here at Liberty Bank. We have NOT asked for or received any government "bank bailout" money -- we don't need it. By prudently managing our businesses and protecting your hard-earned savings, our balance sheet is strong and we are actively lending money to our customers.
In fact, Liberty Bank is proud to have a 5-Star "Superior" rating from BauerFinancial, an honor which recognizes our bank's extraordinary financial strength and stability. We have been given this award every quarter for more than 21 consecutive years, achieving Sustained Superiority Status -- a distinction earned by fewer than 10% of all banks. Liberty Bank has also earned a coveted 5-Star "Superior" Safe and Sound® rating from Bankrate.com -- the highest possible rating from this independent ranking organization.
