Liquidity Overhang

risk
#13 of 174 • Bottom 6.9% in tier

Exceptional capital position (Tier 1 >= 16%, top quartile). Strong fundamentals - opportunity to deploy capital more productively.

(Tier: 15.16%, National: 17.06%)

Loan-to-Deposit Ratio: 109.20%

worse than tier avg

→ Stable +13 banks QoQ

Margin Compression

decline
#10 of 84 • Bottom 10.7% in tier

Profitability above 0.75% ROA but margins eroding by at least 0.10pp YoY. Something changed - rising costs or falling yields need addressing.

Why this signature
Return on Assets: 0.99%
(Tier: 1.37%, National: 1.23%)
worse than tier avg

Credit Risk Growth

risk
#101 of 420 • Bottom 23.8% in tier

Loan portfolio growing while delinquencies are rising. Expansion with deteriorating credit quality needs attention.

Flatlined Growth

risk
#66 of 150 • Bottom 43.3% in tier

Asset growth stalled (-2% to +2% YoY) despite healthy profitability (>0.25% ROA). Suggests untapped opportunity or strategic drift worth investigating.

Why this signature
Return on Assets: 0.99%
(Tier: 1.37%, National: 1.23%)
worse than tier avg
