Berkshire Bank Named Among Most Trustworthy Companies in America

BOSTON — Berkshire Bank has been recognized for the fourth consecutive year as one of the most trusted companies in America in Newsweek magazine’s list of the Most Trustworthy Companies in America 2025. Berkshire is the only Massachusetts-based bank on the list.

In all, about 3,400 companies headquartered in the U.S. were considered for the list. In the end, 700 companies in 23 industries were honored.

Results evaluated customer trust, employee trust, and investor trust. The analysis included what was said about the companies online, including on social-media platforms, and survey results of approximately 25,000 U.S. residents.

Survey respondents who knew companies well were asked, among other things, if they believed individual companies treated their customers fairly, treated their employees fairly, and would be good long-term investments.

“This recognition is a reflection of our values-driven culture and the commitment of Berkshire Bank to integrity, fairness, transparency, and respect in every interaction,” CEO Nitin Mhatre said. “As a trusted advisor, we’re there to support our clients with expertise to help them navigate all economic environments and create a brighter future for all. We are delighted to receive this recognition for the fourth consecutive year and want to thank our customers for their continued trust in us.”

To create its Most Trustworthy Companies in America 2025 list, Newsweek partnered with Statista Inc., a leading data and business intelligence portal and provider of industry rankings that publishes hundreds of worldwide industry rankings and company listings with high-profile media partners.
