Why this looks like a good choice— Low Risk

FIRST HORIZON BANK performs well by the measures that matter most — how often customers needed to complain, and how often those complaints were resolved.

Only 1 in 5,071 customers needed to complain officially

This is one of the lowest complaint rates in this dataset. The vast majority of customers never reached the point of needing to file an official complaint.

Better than 86% of all rated US banks

This places the institution firmly among the better performers in this dataset, based on complaint volume normalised by customer base.

2.4× better than the median rated institution

Not marginally below average — meaningfully better. The median institution generates significantly more complaints per customer.

Around 2.1 customers per week on average needed to complain officially

At this rate, official complaints are rare — not the sign of a systemic problem.

▼ Methodology & data sources

Complaint rates are calculated by dividing total CFPB complaints by estimated customer base (derived from FDIC deposit data), normalised to complaints per 1,000 customers per year. Source: Consumer Financial Protection Bureau public complaint database (2011–present).

Resolution statistics reflect outcomes recorded in the CFPB database as reported by financial institutions. All language describes what the data shows — not the intent of any institution.

Composite Risk Score weights complaint rate (60%), resolution rate (30%), and monetary relief rate (10%). Full methodology →
