The District’s economy continued to expand at a slightly above-average rate. Growth in jobs,single-family homebuilding, and residential and commercial property prices outpaced the nation.Job growth helped the District’s aggregate unemployment rate decline to 6.6% in December2014, down from 7.6% in the prior year, but still above a national figure of 5.6%.

The District is fairly insulated from the direct negative effects of the slump in oil prices, exceptwhere oil is an important economic driver (e.g., Alaska and pockets of Utah and California).Overall, lower energy costs are expected to benefit consumers and provide some economic lift.Still, banks are vulnerable to the indirect effects of a concurrent “flight to safety”, such as theimpact of lower interest rates on margins and of a strengthening dollar on the export economyand foreign currency translation adjustments. Trade-related risks posed by currency fluctuationsand a slowing global economy could be compounded by the West Coast port disruption.

2014 was generally a year of continued financial improvement among District banks. Withproblem asset volumes easing, earnings inched higher but remained below long-term, pre-recession averages due to ongoing margin pressures. Loan growth accelerated further. Liquidityand capital measures moderated but remained well above pre-crisis troughs.

Year-to-date pretax profit ratios generally increased year-over-year but were flat on a linked-quarter basis and trailed national averages. Improved credit quality and stronger financial healthdrove noninterest and provision expenses lower, more than offsetting margin and fee incomepressures.

Banks Rated CAMELS Composite 3, 4, or 5

District annual net loan growth remained strong, accelerating to 12%. Among theDistrict’s states, year-over-year net loan growth ranged from 15% in California to 4% inAlaska. Only two states, Washington and Alaska, trailed the national average growth rateof 7%. Districtwide, commercial and industrial lines and certain real estate loancategories continued to lead in dollar terms. However, the relatively small constructionand land development category continued to register the largest segment-level growthrate. While economic gains likely fueled most loan growth, Federal Reserve Senior LoanOfficer Opinion Surveys suggest that looser underwriting may have contributed as well.

Asset quality continued to improve, especially among smaller banks. The districtwideaverage nonperforming asset ratio, which includes both noncurrent loans and foreclosedreal estate, ended the year at 0.94%, comparable to the nation. Although lower, theDistrict ratio still exceeded pre-recession averages. Prospectively, rising interest ratescould increase debt service coverage requirements for loans priced with variable interestrates. An expanding economy and strengthening incomes, revenues, and rents, whichtypically accompany rising interest rates, could provide some offset to higher credit costs.

Ongoing shifts in balance sheet maturities also pose risks in a rising interest rateenvironment. Longer-duration loans and securities drifted higher and their value maydecline more severely than short-term assets should interest rates increase. Meanwhile,non-maturity deposit reliance increased further. These deposits’ sensitivity to risinginterest rates may be difficult to forecast accurately.

District on-balance sheet liquidity and capital measures moderated slightly but were stillstrong overall. Noncore funds reliance remained relatively low. However, history suggestsa rising interest rate environment may alter the mix of deposits and fundingprospectively. Meanwhile, risk-based capital ratios ebbed as banks continued to shiftassets towards higher risk-weight buckets in response to stronger loan demand.

Examination ratings improved along with financial performance. The share of Districtbanks with less-than-satisfactory examination ratings declined to 22%, still above anational ratio of 13%, but well below a peak of 60% in late 2010. Consumer complianceratings also continued to recover from the Crisis.

This report focuses on the financial trends and performance of commercial banks headquartered within the 12th Federal Reserve District (“12L”). 12L includes 9 western states: AK, AZ, CA, HI, ID, NV, OR, UT, and WA, as well as Guam.

De Novos: Many of the charts exclude “De Novo” banks, or banks less than five years old.

Groups by Asset Size: ‘Small’, and ‘Mid-Sized’ bank groups are based on 12th District community banks (<$10B) and regional banks ($10B-$50B), respectively. The ‘Large’ bank group is based on nationwide banks with assets >$50B, because a larger statistical population was needed to construct trimmed means.

Trimmed Mean (also referred to as “average”): Many of the charts present trends in ratio averages, adjusted for outliers. The method used is to eliminate or “trim” out the highest 10% and the lowest 10% of ratio values, and average the remaining values.

Aggregate: In some cases, the trimmed mean method is not appropriate (e.g., when many banks have zero values for a particular ratio or for some growth rates where there may be many highly positive and highly negative values). In these cases, District aggregates sometimes are computed (i.e., summing numerator values across all District banks and dividing by the sum of all denominator values), as opposed to averaging individual bank ratios). When an aggregate is used, it is indicated on the chart.

Industrial banks and savings institutions: The main focus of this report is on commercial banks. Industrial banks and savings institutions have different operating characteristics so are highlighted separately in Section 4. There, the savings institution data include institutions that file the bank Call Report plus those that, up until March 2012, filed the thrift Call Report.

High - Represents a current or future (next 1-2 years) problem area that if realized would likely lead District institutions to unprofitability, downgrade, or failure (note: High concern cannot have an Increasing outlook because High is already the highest concern level).

Elevated - Represents a lower likelihood than High of becoming a problem area and/or the problem area has a somewhat lower impact on District institutions’ profitability, supervisory ratings, or ongoing concern.

Moderate - Represents a concern that is notable, but has low likelihood of realization or low impact to District institutions. Typically, these issues are of an emerging nature.

Concern Outlook – based on outlook within 1-2 years.

Appendix 3: Regulatory Hot TopicsModerate-to-High Concern Areas to Watch

FRB-SF

IncreasingDecreasing Stable

Evolving competitive, economic, regulatory, and technological challenges have heightened risks in many areas, especially BSA/AML, information technology,

interest rate risk/liquidity, operations, and consumer compliance.

Prevention and detection of rapidly evolving IT vulnerabilities and threats is challenging. The stakes are very high in the event of a breach.

BSA/AML policies, processes, and procedures have not always kept pace with the District’s vulnerability to trade-based money laundering, bulk cash smuggling, marijuana related businesses, and virtual currencies.
