Most of the banks deemed to be potentially challenged are community lenders with less than $10 billion in assets. These banks need to either raise capital, likely from private equity sources as NYCB did, or merge with stronger banks, Graham said. There are other signs of mounting stress among smaller banks. They ranged in size from $90 billion in assets to under $1 billion, according to Fitch. He predicts a surge in merger activity from lenders between $3 billion and $20 billion in assets as smaller firms look to scale up.

Greg Nash | ReutersThe $1 billion-plus injection that New York Community Bank announced Wednesday is the latest example of private equity players coming to the need of a wounded American lender. Led by $450 million from ex-Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's Liberty Strategic Capital, a group of private investors are plowing fresh funds into NYCB. That happened to Silicon Valley Bank, whose failure to raise funding last year was effectively its death knell. On Wednesday, headlines around noon that NYCB was seeking capital sent its shares down by 42% before trading was halted. "With private deals, you can talk for a while, and we almost got to the finish line before there was any publicity."
