All the data used in the evaluation is based on regulatory filings for the period ending September 30, 2016.
 
IBC was also recognized by Forbes as one of "America's Best Banks" in 2010 and 2012 and as one of its "100 Most Trustworthy Companies" in 2012 and 2014, and one of "America's 100 Largest Banks" in 2016.
