According to the <em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/business\/2023\/05\/03\/fed-rate-hike\/\">Washington Post<\/em>, \u201ctremors in the financial system\u201d due to the failure of SVB, First Republic and others are making banks less likely to loan money.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, economic growth and the job market slowed in the first quarter. GDP growth increased a lower than expected 1% and job openings fell more than expected in March as \u201clayoffs and discharges\u201d jumped, the <em>Post<\/em> noted.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, inflation remains way above the Fed\u2019s 2% target. Consumer prices rose 5% in March, according to the <em>Post, <\/em>while the Labor Department reported that private-sector wages and salaries rose 5.1% in March.<\/p>\n<p>Fed Chair Jerome Powell\u2019s statement about possible future rate increases was ambiguous. <em>CNBC<\/em> wrote the language in the Fed\u2019s May 3 statement was \u201cat least a tenuous nod that while tight policy could remain in effect, the path ahead is less clear for actual interest rate hikes as policymakers assess incoming data and financial conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Can PacWest Survive The Bank Failure Pattern?<\/h2>\n<p>While higher interest rates contribute to bank failures, they are not the only cause.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">How 2023\u2019s bank failure pattern works<\/h3>\n<p>Bank failures this spring have followed a common path:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bank executives failed to anticipate rising rates.<\/strong> Before the Fed started raising rates in March 2022, some banks took in deposits from venture-backed startups \u2014 many above the $250,000 FDIC insured limit \u2014 and lent out the money in fixed-rate mortgages or bought long-term bonds.<\/li>\n<li><strong>When rates rose, bankers reacted too slowly to warnings.<\/strong> As the Fed raised interest rates, regulators and ratings agencies warned banks their financial health was endangered because the higher rates cut into the value of those mortgages and bonds.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Their abrupt reactions triggered social-media fueled deposit runs. <\/strong>SVB responded to a February credit-downgrade warning by selling underwater bonds \u2014 taking a $1.8 billion loss that spooked venture capitalists and their startups to withdraw their money en masse with a push from tweets like \u201cYOU SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED RIGHT NOW\u201d from angel investor Jason Calcanis.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stock price plunges signaled the next bank to fall.<\/strong> SVB\u2019s stock price plunged, and trading was halted as the FDIC was unable to find a private rescuer to save it. A similar dynamic took place with First Republic \u2014 although it was drawn out longer before JPMorgan stepped in. These failures triggered drops in shares of other regional banks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Can PacWest survive the bank failure pattern?<\/h3>\n<p>Beverly Hills, Calif.-based PacWest \u2014 a provider of business banking and treasury management services to small, middle-market and venture-backed businesses \u2014 has suffered a 74% drop in its stock price since SVB\u2019s collapse on March 10.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, PacWest stock has moved due to three significant events:<\/p>\n<p><em>A post-SVB deposit drop<\/em><\/p>\n<p>PacWest stock fell 17% on March 20 after it reported a 20% drop in deposits to $27.1 billion between the end of 2022 and March 20 of this year \u2014 largely from venture banking clients that accounted for 24% of its deposits that day, according to a press release.<\/p>\n<p>PacWest raised nearly $18 billion in financing in the wake of those deposit withdrawals. This included borrowing $3.7 billion from the Federal Home Loan Bank System, $10.5 billion from the Fed\u2019s discount window, $2.1 billion from the Bank Term Funding Program as of March 20, and $1.4 billion \u201cfrom a financing facility from Apollo Global Management<fbs-ticker data-name=\"APO\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/companies\/apollo-global-management\" data-type=\"stock\"><br \/>\n  APO<br \/>\n <\/fbs-ticker>-owned investment firm Atlas SP Partners,\u201d noted <em>Bloomberg<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><em>A solid first quarter earnings report<\/em><\/p>\n<p>PacWest\u2019s first quarter earnings report caused investors to cheer \u2014 sending its stock up 14% on April 25. According to <em>MarketWatch<\/em>, PacWest reported deposits increased $1.1 billion between March 20 and March 31 and the bank added about $700 million more in deposits as of April 24.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile PacWest\u2019s adjusted earnings beat expectations while its net interest income fell short. Specifically, PacWest\u2019s adjusted earnings per share of 66 cents were a penny above the FactSet consensus, while its net interest income \u2014 revenue from loans less deposit and other funding costs \u2014 totaled $279.3 million, about $12 million below the consensus, <em>MarketWatch<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n<p><em>JPMorgan\u2019s First Republic takeover<\/em><\/p>\n<p>PacWest shares lost 28% of their value on May 2, the day after JPMorgan\u2019s First Republic takeover.<\/p>\n<p>While <em>CNBC<\/em> could not offer an explanation for PacWest\u2019s plunge, one analyst suggested that the stock price is the market\u2019s way of signaling which bank is the next one to require a government-assisted rescue.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Whalen, chair of Whalen Global Advisors, told the <em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/32342f88-2d24-4198-90f1-89eb23bd1def\">Financial Times<\/em>, \u201cThey are going from the weakest bank to the weakest bank. And it\u2019s not just the short sellers but it\u2019s the customers as well asking if their deposits are safe. The market is focusing on the weakest links and looking for banks that are vulnerable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I am thinking that Whalen\u2019s comment is a more measured version of what Calcanis tweeted about SVB in March.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">What Experts Think Could Happen Next<\/h2>\n<p>Experts have different views of what will happen next \u2014 none of which are bullish on the banking system or the economy.<\/p>\n<p>Michael Milken sees more damage due to bad matching of bank borrowing and loan terms; Charlie Munger sees risk in banks that lend to office landlords; and a former Goldman Sachs managing director, Alla Gil, sees a need for comprehensive risk analysis and mitigation.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Bad asset liability management<\/h3>\n<p>A former Drexel Burnham junk bond king, Milken chastised bankers for violating Finance 101. As <em>CNBC<\/em> reported, Milken attributes the current banking industry woes to its decision to finance long-term loans and investments with short-term borrowing and flighty deposits.<\/p>\n<p>Such a mismatch between when long-term loans are due to be repaid and short-term borrowing must be refreshed puts a bank in big trouble when interest rates are rising. Specifically, banks will have to pay more to borrow money while the interest rate they earn on loans and investments remains low.<\/p>\n<p>The result could be more fleeing depositors who see no reason to stick around for a feared FDIC takeover. Investors are likely to continue to punish other lenders with a \u201chigh percentage of uninsured deposits and potential severe bond losses on their balance sheet,\u201d noted <em>CNBC<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Milken sees loans moving from banks to pension funds which have long-term liabilities that match the long-term loans and bonds. As Milken said, \u201cPeople are so focused on credit risk but one of the great risks is interest rate risk.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Commercial real estate risk<\/h3>\n<p>Banks with exposure to commercial real estate could also be in trouble. Investcorp co-chief Rishi Kapoor told the Milken Institute Global Conference financial conditions will be constrained because of the bank failures.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Munger highlighted the dangers of commercial real estate exposure due to higher interest rates and lower demand for offices due to the continued prevalence of working from home, <em>Financial Times<\/em> noted.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Comprehensive risk assessment and mitigation<\/h3>\n<p>Alla Gil \u2014 who currently is CEO of risk technology company Straterix and also a former managing director and global head of strategic advisory at Goldman Sachs \u2014 said financial executives must look systematically at their risks and protect against them.<\/p>\n<p>An independent analysis of these risks is particularly important for financial institutions that are most vulnerable to rising interest rates and asset-liability mismatches.<\/p>\n<p>As Gil said in a May 1 interview, financial executives must use \u201ca top-down approach to analyze the full range of economic scenarios and assess the potential ripple effects on their portfolios. Investors should review their liquidity positions, hedging strategies, and counterparty exposures and develop a proactive risk mitigation strategy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gil expects further banking industry consolidation, tighter credit, and a rise in loan defaults. As she said, other banks have an SVB-like approach to \u201cfunding, investing, asset-liability and general balance sheet management. If banks lack the capital to lend, the cost of funding goes up, companies pull out their deposits and eventually start defaulting on their loans.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/petercohan\/2023\/05\/03\/fed-hiking-interest-rate-above-5-could-imperil-pacwest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On May 2, PacWest stock fell 28%.
