How to read this chart: the two lines move in opposite directions by design. The Texas Ratio (blue) measures trouble, so a rising blue line means more non-performing assets against capital. The Star Rating (green) and Health Grade chips measure strength, so they fall when the Texas Ratio climbs and recover when it drops.

Our proprietary rating system evaluates financial stability (including the Texas Ratio and capitalization) and combines it with customer feedback (user reviews) to help you make informed banking decisions.

Texas Ratio: We calculate the Texas Ratio using standard industry methodology. This ratio compares the bank's non-performing assets to its tangible common equity and loan loss reserves to assess financial health.

Rate Data Aggregation: We gather Guardian Bank rates using proprietary online rate aggregation technology. Our systems scan constantly to provide the most recent rates available to our visitors.

Disclaimer: Interest rates are variable and subject to change without notice. While we strive for accuracy, rates can change rapidly based on market conditions. It is always advisable to check with Guardian Bank's official website for the most current offers and terms.
