This month’s Newsletter focuses on Q2 21 Call Report data for our state. As detailed in the Newsletter, our banks had another strong quarter evidenced by well managed costs and stabilizing Net Interest Margin. The largest potential near-term issue facing our industry is reflected in the chart below. Alabama lags the nation in COVID vaccines and the growth of the Delta variant could put a damper on Q3/Q4 economic activity and potentially slow growth within our banking system.
