Bank Operating Environment, Regulatory Climate and Impact on Consolidation
Despite turmoil in the banking landscape, community banks have been resilient and demonstrated differentiation from the three high-profile bank failures of 2023. KBW will discuss those situations and how they are impacting investor interest in banks as well as potential regulatory responses. KBW has been an outspoken advocate for common sense reform to restore stability and confidence to the regional and community bank industry, and to level the playing field with the too big to fail banks. KBW will also discuss the state of the M&A environment and expectations for future consolidation over the coming years.
