The latest accomplishment follows a trend of annual average double-digit growth in retail deposits by the bank, most recently growing deposits by $4.8 billion in 2014, which represented a year-over-year increase of 11 percent. In addition to growing deposits, Ally Bank continues to build its customer base and maintain strong customer loy- alty. As the Bank nears the one million customer mark, sat- isfaction and loyalty scores remain consistently above 90 percent. Ally Bank’s customer-centric business philosophy has earned it the title of 'Best Online Bank' for the fourth straight year by MONEY® Magazine, and it has also been named as a top pick among online banks by Kiplinger's Personal Finance and www.GoBankingRates.com. “Our retail deposit growth continues to be driven largely by savings prod- ucts, which now represent 50 per- cent of the retail portfolio,” said Di- ane Morais, Ally Bank Deposits and Line of Busi- ness Integration Executive. “Our customers tend to be purposeful sav- ers, and we offer a very competitive product portfolio to help individu- als achieve their financial savings goals.” To underscore the benefits of banking with an online bank, Ally recently launched its “Facts of Life” ad campaign. The online and TV spots use humorous fact-of-life scenar- ios such as “Ordering Wine = Pretending to Know Wine” to highlight Ally’s “No Branches = Great Rates” message as just another fact of life.
