HONOLULU (HI Now) - First Hawaiian Bank (FHB) has once again earned top honors from Forbes, ranking as the highest-rated bank in Hawai’i on its 2025 Best Banks in America list. This marks the fourth consecutive year FHB has received the recognition—an achievement that reflects the bank’s unwavering commitment to customer service, financial strength, and long-term stability.
Forbes evaluated publicly traded banks using key metrics like total assets, return on equity, asset quality, capital ratios, efficiency, and revenue growth. FHB’s performance across these categories underscores the strength of its customer relationships and the security it offers its clients.
In addition to this national recognition, FHB was also named the SBA Lender of the Year (Category 1)—a distinction especially meaningful as nearly one-third of local small businesses continue to face challenges accessing capital, according to the 2025 UHERO report. FHB’s specialized bankers offer guidance on loan options, cash flow, and debt management, helping businesses navigate both opportunities and obstacles.
From innovative banking products like Priority Banking and the Priority Unlimited Credit Card, to personalized support for entrepreneurs and families alike, FHB continues to lead with service, value, and trusted relationships—meeting customers wherever they are on their financial journey.
