FDIC: Problem Banks Unchanged, Residential REO Decreased Slightly in Q2 2022

by Calculated Risk on 9/08/2022 12:39:00 PM

The FDIC released the Quarterly Banking Profile for Q2 2022 this morning:

Quarterly net income totaled $64.4 billion in second quarter 2022, a reduction of $6.0 billion (8.5 percent) from the same quarter a year ago.
...
Loans and leases that are 30-89 days past due (past-due loan balances) increased from the year-ago quarter (up $11.4 billion, or 25.0 percent). Past-due consumer loans drove the increase from the year-ago quarter. The increase in past-due loan balances lifted the past due rate 6 basis points from the year-ago quarter to 0.48 percent. The past-due rate remained unchanged from the previous quarter, however, as loan growth outpaced the quarterly growth in past due loans. Despite the recent increase, the past-due rate remains below the pre-pandemic average of 0.66 percent.

The FDIC reported the number of problem banks was unchanged at 40.
The number of FDIC-insured institutions declined from 4,796 in first quarter 2022 to 4,771. In second quarter, 6 banks opened and 28 institutions merged with other FDIC-insured institutions. The number of banks on the FDIC’s “Problem Bank List” remained unchanged from first quarter at 40, the lowest level since QBP data collection began in 1984. Total assets of problem banks declined $2.7 billion to $170.4 billion. No banks failed in the second quarter.
This graph from the FDIC shows the number of problem banks and assets at problem institutions.

Note: The number of assets for problem banks increased significantly back in 2018 when Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas was added to the list.  An even larger bank was added to the list last year, although the identity of the bank is unclear.
