said <span class=\"xn-person\">David Taylor<\/span>, President and Chief Executive Officer, VersaBank.\u00a0 &#8220;Moreover, the Bank&#8217;s investment-grade ratings are an external affirmation of our low-risk digital banking model, which is a fundamental component of our ability to drive earnings growth and shareholder value.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Importantly, the &#8220;A-&#8221; investment-grade rating for VersaBank&#8217;s subordinated debt provides the Bank with a new option for significantly lower-cost, non-dilutive, tax efficient capital that was previously not available to us to fuel our growth \u2013 especially beneficial during this current period of record loan growth. \u00a0These new ratings are especially valuable as we explore the potential to launch our innovative digital banking services in new geographic markets beyond <span class=\"xn-location\">Canada<\/span>, where we see significant unmet needs similar to those that have driven the Bank&#8217;s strong, steady growth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>VersaBank&#8217;s<\/b><br \/>\n        <b> Overall &#8220;A&#8221; Rating Enables New Low-Cost Deposit Channel, Significantly Expanding Universe of Depositors in <span class=\"xn-location\">Canada<\/span> and the U.S.<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>The overall &#8220;A&#8221; rating for VersaBank by a National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC)-recognized ratings agency significantly expands VersaBank&#8217;s universe of potential depositors, allowing the Bank to offer a very attractive deposit alternative to institutions such as insurance companies and named municipalities, among others, in <span class=\"xn-location\">Canada<\/span> and internationally, who typically hold deposits for longer terms and are restricted to holding deposits with investment-grade rated financial institutions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The foundation of VersaBank&#8217;s low-risk, superior profitability proposition is our ability to source low-cost deposits, enabling us to achieve industry leading net interest margins,&#8221; said Mr. Taylor. &#8220;We recently achieved a new record low for its cost of funds at 1.34% and the Bank&#8217;s new investment-grade credit rating now enables large, long-term depositors, providing a significant additional source of low-cost funds.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>ABOUT VERSABANK<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>VersaBank is a Canadian Schedule I chartered bank with a difference.
