Q4 2023 - Bank Executive Business Outlook Survey

February 6, 2024

Bank executives are less pessimistic about the economy and the outlook for their institutions. Although they have concerns on the regulatory front and about the competitive market for deposits, the number of bankers who expect loan demand to improve and funding costs to drop increased significantly in this survey. Additionally, the percentage of bankers who think economic conditions for their bank will improve in the coming year more than doubled since last quarter.

Interestingly, there was a notable difference in bankers’ views on the largest threats to their institution versus their biggest concern for the industry overall. When asked about their own bank, 42% of executives said margin compression was the biggest worry. Only 8% cited concerns about credit quality at their own bank.

A list identifying IntraFi network banks can be found at www.IntraFi.com/network-banks.

Deposit placement through an IntraFi service is subject to the terms, conditions, and disclosures in applicable agreements. IntraFi is not an FDIC-insured bank, and deposit insurance covers the failure of an insured bank. Deposits placed through CDARS and ICS are placed at FDIC-insured banks in IntraFi’s network and are eligible for FDIC deposit insurance coverage at network banks. Deposits that are placed through an IntraFi service at FDIC-insured banks in IntraFi’s network are eligible for FDIC deposit insurance coverage at the network banks. The depositor may exclude banks from eligibility to receive its funds. To meet conditions for pass-through FDIC deposit insurance, deposit accounts at FDIC-insured banks in IntraFi’s network that hold deposits placed using an IntraFi service are titled, and deposit account records are maintained, in accordance with FDIC regulations for pass-through coverage. Although deposits are placed in increments that do not exceed the FDIC standard maximum deposit insurance amount (“SMDIA”) at any one bank, a depositor’s balances at the institution that places deposits may exceed the SMDIA before settlement for deposits or after settlement for withdrawals. The depositor must make any necessary arrangements to protect such balances consistent with applicable law and must determine whether placement through an IntraFi service satisfies any restrictions on its deposits.
