Deposits

CEO Rajinder Singh said battered competitors are "throwing off" both talent and customers, creating a chance for the Miami Lakes, Florida, bank to pick up new business.

Federal officials should have protected both banks' uninsured depositors by following the law's carefully designed framework for dealing with failures of systemically important banks.

The San Francisco bank, on shaky ground after two regional peers failed last month, said that customers pulled more than 40% of their deposits last quarter. It's been forced to turn to more expensive sources of funding, which analysts said will squeeze its profitability.

The Dallas-based company is intentionally shedding certain deposit relationships that don't align with its new business model. Total quarterly deposits fell 12.6% year over year, but they rose 1% after excluding the relationships targeted for reduction, according to the bank.

Main Street companies, particularly those owned by women and minorities, depend on the flexibility of community and regional banks for their survival.

The Birmingham, Alabama, bank said that its deposits fell by $3.3 billion last quarter, and it projected a decrease of up to $2 billion between April and June. Executives assured investors that sizable liquidity sources are available.

A study published after last month's crisis finds that banks can guard against rate-driven deposit outflows by keeping more liquid funds available. It also concludes that financial institutions with higher rates of uninsured deposits are more likely to face bank runs.

The regional bank started making moves to protect deposits last year, which prevented steeper declines during a volatile first quarter, CEO Tim Spence says.

The Dallas-based bank expects some of the recent deposit outflows to return in the future.

Although the Columbus, Ohio-based regional emerged from the recent crisis relatively unscathed, management was still taking steps to shore up its balance sheet, including forgoing stock buybacks to strengthen a key capital metric.

The Cleveland-based regional bank said that its net interest income fell 10% — and profits declined by an even larger percentage — as it paid more to retain depositors. Still, CEO Chris Gorman said the company is "well prepared to handle the deposit challenges in front of the market."

Paying higher rates to customers should help stem deposit outflows at the Salt Lake City bank. But it's expected to contribute to a projected 7% drop in net interest income during the second quarter.

The Providence, Rhode Island, expects NII to decline 3% for the second consecutive quarter now that it's paying more to prevent a further slide in deposits and tightening lending standards in anticipation of a mild recession.

The Phoenix bank provided behind-the-scenes details of the fallout from March's banking crisis, when it lost $8 billion of deposits in a single day. The company's share price closed up 24% on Wednesday after executives vowed to reassess its capital and liquidity strategy.

After seeing deposit increase over the second half of March, CFO Dermot McDonogh restated the New York custody giant's guidance for a 20% year-over-year jump in spread income, hinting the company might actually overshoot its target.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said it will propose a special assessment to cover losses from Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in May, and noted that bank deposit outflows are largely uninsured.

Deposits at BNY Mellon stood at $281.3 billion, versus the average $277 billion forecast by analysts tracked by Bloomberg.

First-quarter net income rose 15% at Bank of America on strong fixed-income trading revenue and net interest income, which offset higher credit and noninterest expenses as well as an investment-banking slump.

The Boston-based custody bank reported a 9% decline in fee income from a year earlier and a shift away from non-interest-bearing deposits that cost it millions in net interest income. As a result, earnings per share fell 12 cents short of analysts' expectations.

One of the architects of Britain's financial regulation has called for higher capital charges on banks as a "quid pro quo" if the government decides to strengthen deposit guarantees in the wake of Silicon Valley Bank's collapse.
