GLENS FALLS, N.Y. , Oct. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Arrow Financial Corporation (NasdaqGS® – AROW) is pleased to announce it was recently named to the prestigious Piper Sandler Sm-All Stars: Class of 2024, a list of 30 top-performing small-cap banks and thrifts in the country.

To earn Sm-All Star status, banks and thrifts needed to have a market cap below $2.5 billion and meet certain criteria related to growth, profitability, credit quality and capital strength.
