Banks with the steepest multi-quarter rise in CRE — owner-occupied charge-offs

Banks whose category-specific charge-off rate is rising fastest over the trailing two years, measured by linear-regression slope of the year-to-date charge-off ratio. Acceleration in charge-offs is a leading indicator of credit-portfolio deterioration that typically precedes nonperforming-loan ratio spikes by one to three quarters.

Methodology

This card ranks banks by how fast charge-offs in a loan category are accelerating. For each bank, quarter and category, the charge-off ratio is year-to-date charge-offs divided by that category's loan balance. We fit a straight-line trend (the slope) through up to eight quarter-end observations in the trailing two-year window, and rank banks whose slope is at least 0.001 per quarter (roughly 0.4 percentage points a year of rising charge-offs). A bank with fewer than two observations has no trend and is left out. Field sources: FFIEC Call Report Schedule RI-B Part I per-category charge-off codes, taken directly from the FFIEC Central Data Repository (CDR) — the RIAD4635 family at the institution-total level; RIADC234, RIADC235, RIAD5411, RIAD3588, RIADC895, RIADC897, RIADC891, RIADC893, RIAD4638 and RIADB514 / RIADK129 / RIADK205 for individual categories. The same filing's per-category loan balances provide the denominator. Accelerating charge-offs typically come one to three quarters before a jump in the nonperforming-loan ratio, so this card surfaces the early signal. A category with fewer than ten qualifying banks in a quarter gets no page for that quarter.
