Bartmann lists local bank as one of its ‘10 most troubled’ in Texas
Clarification: The Villager ran a story Thursday focusing on an independent list of troubled banks here in Montgomery County. The story also mentioned several banks not on the list which have a high ratio of non-performing assets. However, there are many other factors used to evaluate a bank’s strengths: capital levels, earning power, credit metrics, and liquidity. According to an Amegy spokerperson: 1) Amegy Bank earned $15.5 million through the 2nd quarter of 2010. 2) Amegy's credit quality demonstrated positive signs of improvement for the second consecutive quarter. The bank’s allowance for credit losses represents 5.44% of total loans, which is above peer average. 3) Amegy’s capital ratios -- its tangible common equity ratio (tangible common equity/tangible assets) -- was 7.92%, in excess of the “well capitalized” standard of regulators and above the bank's peer average. 4) Amegy continues to have excess liquidity, averaging $2 billion in excess funds.
