Q3 TRENDS & A LOOK AHEAD
Featured Speakers:
Shawn O’Brien, President, QwickRate
David Ruffin, Principal, IntelliCredit
Dan Marks, President, Infusion Marketing Group
It's that time of year when we're focused on 2025 —not to mention the implications of the impending election. Community banks are preparing for growth while continuing to monitor costs, credit and liquidity. On the credit side, irrespective of the Fed's short-term rate cut, banks are beginning to deal with fallout from loan repricing, which inevitably degrades debt service coverage. At the same time, regulatory scrutiny is intensifying, and stress testing for all banks is becoming a universal expectation. Join our experts as they review Q3 performance using our QwickAnalytics Index of 'true' community banks, and take a look ahead to the challenges and opportunities that 2025 may present.
