Liquidity Strain

risk
#15 of 361 • Bottom 3.9% in tier

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

(Tier: 85.04%, National: 79.03%)
worse than tier avg

Flatlined Growth

risk
#36 of 162 • Bottom 21.6% in tier

Why this signature
Return on Assets: 1.01%
(Tier: 1.39%, National: 1.30%)
worse than tier avg
