Comparative Safety and Soundness: The Industrial Bank Industry Quarter End March 31, 2022

The Utah Center for Financial Services at the University of Utah prepared this report to highlight the safety and soundness of Industrial Banks. Key measures of safety and soundness in banking are Capital, Asset Quality, and Profitability. We have compared levels of Capital, Asset Quality and Profitability for the US banking industry and the industrial banking sectors. The underlying financial information is drawn from the March 31, 2022 call report data for individual banks and for aggregated banking industry segments. While the banking industry is sound and safe as of March 31, 2022, the industrial bank sector continues to demonstrate superior financial strength.

The Utah Center for Financial Services findings are summarized below and, along with the data, are contained in this report.
