    Moody’s Downgrades Ratings of US Banks Amid Economic Pressures

    By Business Leaders ReviewAugust 15, 2023

    Key Points:

    • Moody’s credit ratings agency downgrades s credit ratings of several prominent US banks.
    • Increasing profitability pressures are highlighted in second-quarter results for many banks.
    • Impending mild recession exacerbates challenges faced by the US banking sector.

    In a significant development on August 7, Moody’s, the renowned credit ratings agency, announced a downgrade of credit ratings for a number of prominent US banks. This decision comes alongside a cautionary note indicating the review of credit standings for several of the country’s largest financial institutions. The agency’s action encompasses a one-notch reduction in the ratings of ten US banks, while also placing several banking giants under scrutiny for potential future downgrades. Furthermore, Moody’s has shifted its outlook to negative for a selection of major lenders, signaling a more cautious stance. This comprehensive assessment has prompted recalibrations in evaluations for a total of 27 banks within the sector.

    The downgrade notably affects institutions such as M&T Bank, Pinnacle Financial Partners, Prosperity Bank, and BOK Financial Corp. Additionally, financial giants including BNY Mellon, US Bancorp, State Street, and Truist Financial now find themselves under review, hinting at potential forthcoming downgrades.

    Moody’s emphasized concerns regarding mounting pressures on profitability, evident in the second-quarter results for numerous banks. These pressures are projected to curtail the banks’ capacity to generate internal capital, a crucial factor influencing their overall financial strength. This development occurs against the backdrop of an impending mild recession, which adds to the challenges faced by banks. They are now grappling with heightened risks associated with fluctuating interest rates and the intricate management of assets and liabilities, further compounding the complexities of the existing financial landscape.

    This series of events in the US banking sector is magnified by the earlier collapses of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, events that triggered a crisis of confidence within the industry. Consequently, a wave of deposit withdrawals ensued, impacting various regional banks. Despite rapid implementation of emergency measures by authorities to restore trust, the situation remains delicate.
