While some financial companies appear to be floundering, others have been in the spotlight for their achievements.

Case in point: The national online bank of key footwear industry financier CIT Group, CIT Bank, recently said it was identified as a 2018 top ten savings account winner by personal finance resource companies GOBankingRates and NerdWallet.

GOBankingRates placed CIT Bank as No. 2 on its best savings accounts of 2018 list. According to a spokesperson for CIT, the bank also was granted GOBankingRates’ editors’ pick award for the best high-yield savings account, in addition to a spot on the top 10 banks in California list. What’s more, for the second year in a row, it was named one of the 10 best online banks of 2018, the spokesperson said.

Further, as part of its third annual best-of awards program, NerdWallet selected CIT Bank as one of the top online bank accounts among nine finalists, the spokesperson added.
