The FDIC's Quarterly Banking Profile was mostly good news for banks, showing higher profits and lower noncurrent loans, but loan growth remains a worry. Following are insights into bank earnings.

President Trump’s budget would reduce funds to the CFPB and eliminate a fund designed to help regulators unwind a failing megabank.

Regulators have hinted that they're warming up to the idea of startups, but industry veteran George Groves is raising money to buy an existing bank because he fears the approval process would take too long.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. is set to release its quarterly barometer of the banking industry on May 24.

The deposit insurer has stayed out of the debate over how to regulate the online lending industry. But that may be about to change.

The regulator said that the Bank of Lake Mills, Freedom Stores and Military Credit Services violated the FTC Act.

There are barriers to possible efforts by acting Comptroller of the Currency Keith Noreika to act unilaterally to change the Volcker Rule.
