HONOLULU, Hawaii—ABA Banking Journal, a leading national trade publication, named Bank of Hawaii the top performing bank in the nation for 2013 among the largest public banks and thrifts. Bank of Hawaii rose in ranking from its No. 2 position the prior year.
The rankings were published in the magazine’s April 2014 edition.
Peter Ho, Bank of Hawaii chairman, president and CEO, said, “This is wonderful recognition for our employees and testament to the hard work they do every day in helping our customers meet their financial needs. It’s also a reflection of our great customers and the community in which we operate. We take pride in our performance and strive to do our best for the people who count on us.”

The rankings are based on SEC filings for public institutions and regulatory filings for non-public and foreign-owned institutions, and are prepared by Capital Performance Group, Washington, D.C.,
