▼ + stars: | 2023-10-24 | by ( Sergio Padilla | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +6 min

Following the bank closings, many other regional banks have had to pay higher interest rates on deposits in order to prevent customers from heading towards the exit. Comerica saw declines in both provisions and net interest income and a 28% decline in net income compared to last year. Zions Bancorp had a dramatic decline as well, seeing yearly declines in net interest income and provisions. Going forward, if demand for loans dries up, that gets rid of a key source of income for regional banks. The SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF, a benchmark for judging the performance of shares of regional banks, was down 2.9% over five days as of midday trading on Friday.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid Acquire Licensing RightsNEW YORK, Oct 18 (Reuters) - Several U.S. regional banks beat analysts third-quarter profit expectations on Wednesday as higher interest rates allowed them to charge more for loans, although rising loan loss provisions and deposit retention costs crimped margins. Shares of several regional banks fell, including M&T Bank and US Bancorp. Regional banks remain a focus of investor scrutiny. The KBW regional banking index (.KRX) is down nearly 24% year-to-date, while the S&P regional bank (.SPCOMBNKS) has also dropped 33% in the same period. Citizens Financial Group (CFG.N) and First Horizon Corp (FHN.N) both reported a decline in their third quarter profit weighed down by rising credit loss provisions and deposit costs.

☆ Moody’s warns it could cut credit ratings of 6 big US banks
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-08 | by ( Olesya Dmitracova | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —Moody’s has put the credit ratings of six large US banks, including Bank of New York Mellon, State Street and Northern Trust, under review for a possible downgrade. A lower credit rating could push funding costs for those banks even higher. This, in turn, has raised fears that banks, which finance many commercial real estate deals, could suffer losses as a result. “Most regional banks have comparatively low regulatory capital versus the largest US banks and global peers,” Moody’s noted Monday. Moody’s also downgraded 10 smaller US banks Monday, including Commerce Bancshares (CBSH), BOK Financial Corporation and M&T Bank Corporation.

July 19 (Reuters) - Three major U.S. regional banks met or beat profit expectations on Wednesday as higher interest rates allowed them to charge more for loans, while deposits stabilized, sending shares across the sector up. Investors have been anxiously awaiting regional bank second quarter earnings as they look for reassurance that the turmoil that rocked the sector earlier this year has finally passed. M&T Bank Corporation (MTB.N) and Citizens Financial Group (CFG.N) both beat Wall Street estimates from charging clients higher interest rates after the U.S. Federal Reserve raised borrowing costs to rein in stubborn inflation. The KBW Regional Bank Index (.KRX) and S&P regional bank index (.SPCOMBNKS) were each gaining nearly 2% in line with the broader market. M&T's deposits rose to $162.1 billion from $159.1 billion at the end of the first quarter, but fell about 4.9% year-on-year.

☆ M&T Bank beats profit estimates as higher rates boost interest income
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-19 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +1 min

July 19 (Reuters) - M&T Bank Corporation (MTB.N) beat Wall Street estimates for second-quarter profit on Wednesday, as the U.S. Federal Reserve's rapid rate hikes to tame inflation boosted the lender's interest income. Most consumer-facing lenders have tapped higher rates to charge more interest on their loans and credit card debt, with M&T's upbeat results echoing larger rivals JPMorgan Chase (JPM.N), Wells Fargo (WFC.N) and Bank of America (BAC.N). M&T's net interest income surged 27% to $1.81 billion, helping the bank report an adjusted profit of $4.11 per share, above analysts' average estimates of $4.04 per share, according to Refinitiv IBES data. Still, banks have been slow to pass on high interest rates to their deposit holders, driving a shift to higher-yielding assets such as money market funds. Net income available to common shareholders in the quarter was $841 million, or $5.05 per share, compared with $192 million, or $1.08 per share, a year earlier.

☆ Factbox: Big banks stand strong against Fed's commercial real estate gloom
▼ + stars: | 2023-06-28 | by ( Michelle Price | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +3 min

WASHINGTON, June 28 (Reuters) - Big U.S. banks' commercial real estate portfolios put in a surprisingly good performance during the Federal Reserve's annual health checks, with losses declining slightly on last year, the central bank said on Wednesday. With risks growing in the commercial real estate (CRE) sector globally, analysts and investors were looking to the Fed's "stress tests" for more insight on how exposed the country's lenders are to falling real estate prices. Commercial real estate (CRE), especially offices, has been hit by interest rates hikes and workers choosing to stay at home. The Fed's annual bank "stress tests" established following the 2007-2009 financial crisis probe how lenders would fare against an extreme scenario: a 40% decline in commercial real estate values. The average projected CRE loan loss rate across the group was 8.8% of average loan balances, compared with 9.8% last year, the Fed said.

June 6 (Reuters) - Shares of major U.S. banks and regional lenders outperformed broader markets in morning trading on Tuesday with the KBW Regional Banking index (.KRX) hitting its highest since late April.

The S&P 500 Banks index (.SPXBK) advanced about 2.3%. Regional lenders were also higher, with PacWest Bancorp (PACW.O), Western Alliance (WAL.N), Zions Bancorp (ZION.O), Comerica (CMA.N), M&T Bank Corp (MTB.N) and KeyCorp (KEY.N) rising between 4.9% and 8.5%. The volatility in shares of regional lenders has underscored ongoing investor uncertainty over the health of the sector, with the KBW Regional Banking index losing roughly 22% so far this year.
