The McLean, Virginia, company is starting to “trim around the edges” of its auto portfolio, CEO Richard Fairbank said. That move stands in contrast with Capital One's leaning into its credit card business, which helped push marketing spending above $1 billion.

Unlike some of its peers, the Dallas bank says the U.S. economy is strong, clients are upbeat and lending momentum continues.

The latest expense guidance also stems from rising operating losses at the North Carolina bank. Cost-cutting was a key rationale for the 2019 merger of BB&T and SunTrust, which created Truist.

Like other mortgage lenders, the San Francisco megabank has been cutting staff since refinancing volumes started to fall. Additional layoffs are expected over the next couple of quarters, according to the bank’s chief financial officer.

The effects on nonbanks will depend on the mix between their production and servicing operations, Fitch Ratings said.

Executives at banks north of the border pointed this week to several potential U.S. economic snags, including inflation, the possibility of a housing market correction and soaring energy prices.

The government-sponsored enterprises will start releasing information similar to what large banks already do, starting in the first quarter of 2023.

But the REIT, which invests in mortgages that have to be verified through nontraditional means like bank statements, has seen an improvement in its outlook since the first quarter.

The move supports strong gains coming in from this side of the business, which helped the company return to profitability in the third quarter.

While first-quarter profits were up considerably, CEO Michael Nierenberg said the company will offer more products to counter market conditions that are “only going to get worse.”

Fair value increases on existing business and an accounting change made for troubled debt restructurings likely explain why its results contrasted those of competitor Freddie Mac.

While the lender-servicer reported robust Q1 earnings, it is anticipating lower future revenue due to the tight originations environment.

CEO Jamie Dimon cited elevated risks related to inflation and the war in Ukraine as the nation’s largest bank added $902 million in loan-loss reserves. “Does this represent conservatism in an uncertain macro environment or something more onerous?” one analyst asked.

The gain on sale from first quarter originations increased as the bank shifted more volume share to the higher-margin channel.

But it was the second-most successful year ever for IMB originations since the Mortgage Bankers Association began collecting this data in 2008.

The Silicon Valley fintech expects to make $1.5 billion in auto loans this year after implementing key elements needed to achieve scale, said CEO David Girouard. The expansion comes as the automotive market continues to boom.

"The quality of our new business is high. The pricing of that business does not reflect the capital requirements of our regulatory rule," CEO Hugh Frater said.

However, leadership noted that 2021 was the second record year for new single-family mortgages and also discussed how the government sponsored-enterprise plans to further rebuild its capital.

The credit card issuer fielded questions about its fees two days after the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau announced a wide-ranging review of consumer charges. Executives said they would not take a big revenue hit even in the face of new limits.

The largest bank based in oil-rich Texas is building a framework for gauging the threat that climate change poses to its business and plans to disclose more information on the subject this summer. Meanwhile, its energy loan portfolio shrank 24% year over year.
