Capital Thin

risk
#69 of 432 · Bottom 16% in Community

Tier 1 capital ratio in the bottom quartile of peers. Capital cushion thin relative to peers - regulator-watching cohort.

Margin Compression

decline
#20 of 120 · Bottom 16% in Community

Profitability above 0.75% ROA but margins eroding by at least 0.10pp YoY. Something changed - rising costs or falling yields need addressing.

Why this signature

Flatlined Growth

risk
#85 of 245 · Bottom 34% in Community
