Liquidity Strain

risk
#77 of 691 • Bottom 11.0% in tier

Loan-to-deposit ratio above 90% - loan demand outpacing deposits. Bumping against liquidity limits, funding solutions needed.

Why this signature

(Tier: 77.95%, National: 79.03%)
worse than tier avg

Flatlined Growth

risk
#115 of 529 • Bottom 21.5% in tier

Why this signature

(Tier: 1.32%, National: 1.30%)
worse than tier avg
529 of 529 Community banks match · 719 nationally
