NEW YORK, September 9, 2014 — Global Finance has named the World’s Top 50 Safest Commercial Banks in an exclusive survey to be published in the November 2014 issue.

The full World’s Safest Banks report evaluates the safest banks in Western Europe, Central and Eastern Europe, Asia, the Middle East, North America, Latin America and Australasia.

In addition to the World’s Top 50 Safest Commercial Banks, the report includes the following rankings: World’s 50 Safest Banks, World’s Safest Banks By Region, World’s Safest Banks By Country, Top 50 Safest Banks In Emerging Markets, Safest Islamic Financial Institutions In The GCC, World’s 50 Biggest Banks and the Biggest Emerging Markets Banks.

Banks were selected through an evaluation of long-term credit ratings— from Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch—and total assets of the 500 largest banks worldwide. For commercial banks to qualify for this ranking, they must not be majority owned by government or regional authorities. A video detailing the methodology behind the selections can be found at http://www.gfmag.com/media/video/worlds-safest-banks-selection-methodology.

“These banks are not government-owned, and are among the strongest and most secure institutions in the world,” notes Joseph Giarraputo, publisher and editorial director of Global Finance.
