The implosion of New York Community Bancorp highlights an unusual risk for banks: growing too fast. New York Community Bancorp's 64% stock crash was in part caused by the increased regulatory scrutiny it received after crossing $100 billion in assets. But it can be a completely different story in the banking sector, and New York Community Bancorp is the latest example. Since then, New York Community Bancorp stock has crashed 64% and reignited fears of another regional banking crisis. "The case underpins a core principle of banking that may seem counterintuitive beyond: In banking, growth is … not good," Rubinstein said.
