Small banks’ margins are getting crushed in the current deposit environment. They have made a lot of fixed rate loans and customers are demanding more on their deposits. Not a good combination. I wonder what this bank’s loan to deposit ratio is? Anything approaching 100% or above is concerning for regulators.
