Lower interest rates could bolster loan demand, credit quality and securities portfolios. But they could also curb lending profitability faster than they ease deposit costs, crimping net interest margins and eating into near-term profits. https://lnkd.in/gPkf_7sH

It's been more than three years since the White House launched its interagency task force on Property Appraisal and Valuation Equity, or PAVE. A lot of work has emerged from the group, including a comprehensive report on bias in appraisal, tools for tracking property valuations by Census tracts and even new standards for banks and other mortgage lenders. But has PAVE achieved its core goal of making property valuation more fair? It depends on who you ask. Check out my latest piece for American Banker for a full rundown of the task force's accomplishments and what they mean for banks. https://lnkd.in/enr7VwU6
PAVE task force winds down, but the work has just begun

Mastercard plans to lay off about 3% of its employees by the end of September. The staff reductions come as both Mastercard and Visa focus on growing revenue from sources beyond payment fees particularly in mature markets. That includes focusing on emerging markets with a cash-reliant population and selling technology, artificial intelligence and consulting services to a large international network of financial institutions, partner fintechs and merchants. #mastercard #payments #banks https://lnkd.in/gj4i2X5V

American Banker's 2024 ranking of the Best Credit Unions to Work For is live! In my second year leading the project, and with the help of Best Companies Group, I compiled the top 70 institutions across the U.S. ranging from as small as 25 employees at the $181 million-asset Railway Credit Union in North Dakota, to as large as 3,327 employees at the $20 billion-asset America First Credit Union in Ogden, Utah. Of the institutions that made the list, 92% of employees said they were satisfied with their current employer according to survey data. This figure among those that did not make the list was 87%. The data goes deeper to show that 77% of honorees' employees felt that if they did good work, they would be sufficiently rewarded. Among the staff of non-honorees, this number dropped to 70%.

The Bank of Nova Scotia is extending a $2.8 billion helping hand to KeyCorp as part of an investment strategy that both addresses the Cleveland-based bank’s profitability concerns and gives the Canadian institution a foothold in the U.S. banking market. The deal would yield the Toronto-based Scotiabank a 14.9% stake in KeyCorp, establishing the bank as the largest shareholder, and comes with an agreement that Scotiabank would keep its ownership below 19.9% for the next five years to quell acquisition rumors. In return, KeyCorp leaders can be more aggressive with potentially repositioning its bond portfolio and other areas of operation. Read more about how this deal and other market moves are shaping investor activity in the latest roundup. #bankingindustry

Charlie is prioritizing customer security over payment speed to protect against rising #fraud targeting elderly consumers. "You can call it a five-alarm fire; you could call it a tsunami, but with [generative] AI, you're seeing a proliferation of fraud on every front with text messages, emails, voice and, soon, video," said Kevin Nazemi, CEO of Charlie. This come as hybrid scams such as pig butchering —where the fraudster first builds trust with the target then encourages investments that show large, albeit fake, returns before disappearing — are poised to become "the wave of the future," said Frank McKenna, chief strategist at fraud solution fintech Point Predictive.
