U.S. Banker Names National Capital Bank as One of the Best in the Nation

The National Capital Bank of Washington (NCB) announced today
that it was, once again, the only Washington, D.C.-based bank named
among the “Top 200 Community Banks” by U.S. Banker magazine. This
designation is based on a three-year average return on equity (ROE)
as of Dec. 31, 2009.
SNL Financial LC analyzed the data and U.S. Banker published the
list in its June 2010 issue. At that time, NCB’s Return on Equity
Ratio was 9.92 percent. ROE tells stockholders how effectively
their money is being used. The measure is a good indicator of how
profitable a banking institution is as compared to its peers.
“The overall state of the economy and the Federal Reserve’s
insistence on low interest rate levels makes it doubly difficult to
run a profitable banking operation these days. It is gratifying to
see that our history of solid earnings performance has been
acknowledged,” says James M. Didden, president of NCB. “NCB has
worked hard to ensure profitable operations while maintaining the
highest standards of safety and soundness. It’s a delicate
balancing act to be sure.” The Bank has paid continuous dividends
to its shareholders for more than 121 years.
Earlier this year, NCB also received an A+ rating from Weiss
Ratings, the nation’s only independent provider of ratings and
analyses covering the financial services industry. This was the
third consecutive year that The National Capital Bank was
recognized by Weiss for exceptional safety and solid
performance.
“These recent accolades lend additional support to our “Move to
NCB” campaign,” says Richard Didden, Chairman and CEO. “The
campaign urges Washington area residents to make the move from the
impersonal, big banks to a highly stable and secure, top-rated
community bank like National Capital Bank. We’ve even developed a
separate website for the campaign, www.MovetoNCB.com, which
provides information about our Bank as well as the national Move
Your Money movement. Our belief is that local, safe and sound
community banks are the lifeblood of any community and offer the
best return value to consumers.”
The National Capital Bank of Washington was founded in 1889 and
has been managed by the Didden family for 121 years. NCB has assets
of $306 million and is headquartered on Capitol Hill with a second
branch located in Friendship Heights. The bank has been recognized
over the last decade with numerous accolades for its safety and
soundness, exceptional performance, small business lending, and for
being named one of the top banks and thrifts, a 100-year old small
business of the year, and top commercial lender. NCB trades under
the symbol NACB. For more information about NCB, go to
