A message about current events from our President & CEO, Dan Walsh
March 01, 2022
With the unsettling events unfolding in Europe, we would like to reassure and share with you what Norway Savings Bank is doing to keep your funds safe and secure.
- Norway Savings Bank’s IT infrastructure and systems are incredibly secure. Our experienced IT team constantly monitors, secures and tests all information security assets. We also have engaged industry-leading cybersecurity experts to help us protect your account information and data. Rest assured, providing unparalleled security to our customers is of the utmost importance to us.
- Norway Savings Bank is among the most financially-sound banks in Maine. You can feel safe and secure depositing your money with Norway Savings Bank. We’ve been serving our communities for the last 155 years and received the highest possible rating – 5-stars! – for the last 32 years from BauerFinancial, the nation’s premier bank rating firm. They not only give us high marks for our capital, asset quality and liquidity, but praise NSB for providing strength and stability in our communities.
- Your money is safest when it’s in the bank. Our primary job is to protect your money and make it accessible when you need it. Your deposits are protected up to $250,000 with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), an independent agency created by Congress to ensure stability in the banking system.
- Protecting your accounts is a team effort. While we employ top-of-the-line information security practices, it’s also important for you to protect your passwords, ensure they are complex and change them frequently. We also recommend that you never respond to texts, emails or phone calls asking you for any personal information like social security or account numbers. And NEVER click on links in emails you aren’t expecting. Lastly, we recommend signing up for NSB Alerts in Online or Mobile Banking – text and email alerts will tell you if there is an unauthorized withdrawal, your balance falls below a certain threshold or a check clears.
We recognize during times like these that the world is a very small place. Our thoughts are with those who are directly impacted and have family or friends in harm’s way.
Rest assured, we are here for you, our communities, customers, families, friends and neighbors. If you have any questions or concerns, please call us – 888.725.2207.
Sincerely,
Dan Walsh
President & CEO
