This useful link tell you about the state of your bank. "1" is best "5" is worst in the CAMEL rating system. They also show a star rating system with "1-star" worst and "5-stars" best. Once you have the rating of your bank/C.U. be sure to get the details by selecting "next" next to "memorandum"

4. I can't find my bank :(

Bank of America does not show up when I query by zip code or state. If I look it up by name, I have several choices (from other states), but none from Maryland.

5. Only a few are listed near us.

Ours is 4 stars. But most of the banks in our city are not even mentioned.

6. Thanks. My 88 year-old dad needs this.

I looked up his bank and it has three stars. Maybe he can sleep a little better now.

7. Pretty good: four stars and a 2.

Worth checking periodically. Thanks.

10. Mine got that too - which is a little contradictory, if I'm understanding correctly.

Four stars is very good but 2 is so-so.

8. My bank is at a 2 rating

Luckily, its a credit union that has always had a very tough policy towards loans.
