COLUMBUS, Ind. – Columbus-based Centra Credit Union has been recognized on the Forbes list of America’s Best-In-State Credit Unions for 2025. This prestigious award is presented in collaboration with Statista, the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The award list was announced last month and can be viewed on the Forbes website.
Financial institutions serve as the foundation of the financial world, playing a critical role in maintaining the stability of global systems. America’s Best-In-State Credit Unions 2025 aims to showcase the institutions most valued by residents in each state and to recognize the credit unions that have excelled in meeting the unique needs and expectations of their local communities.
The ranking is based on an independent survey of more than 26,000 members in the U.S. Participants evaluated credit unions on several criteria, including trust, financial advice, customer services, digital services, branch services, and terms/conditions. A sentiment analysis was conducted using the publicly available reviews, and a score was calculated.
“This is the third time Centra’s commitment to our Members has been awarded in the last four years by Forbes,” Centra President and CEO Rick Silvers said. “It proves our dedication to listening, understanding, and serving our Membership with a valuable banking experience every day. We’re honored to receive this recognition and to have the opportunity to live out what it represents.”
