Results of the 1,300 person survey in California and Nevada, said to be the first ever study of consumer attitudes conducted by the league, was discussed Friday during the league's annual meeting and convention here.

" Banks are by far and away the `top-of-mind' consideration when consumers think of financial institutions," the survey said.
