Brief:
Bankers talk of uncertainty relating to regulatory reform, loan growth, asset quality, non-interest income, economic conditions, governmental fiscal policy–the list goes on. Yet despite this uncertainty, whole-bank and thrift M&A deal volume turned up in the second quarter of 2011 to 43, bringing the total volume for the first half to 76. There seems to be a greater willingness on the part of buyers to act decisively in the face of organic growth challenges, especially if the target fulfills a strategic goal. In addition, more sellers are realizing the importance of joining forces to create a larger pool of resources, motivated by the performance gap between larger institutions and community banks. These are just a sampling of topics we will discuss during this webinar to make sense of the changing community banking landscape and the opportunities these changes present.
