Request the 2012 U.S. Banking Sector Outlook Report
- Trepp does not expect 2012 to be a repeat of 2008, but there will be more disappointments than pleasant surprises in the new year.
- The banking industry has not yet returned to “normal” despite two years of earnings growth. The industry will face more—not fewer—headwinds in 2012. Banks will earn less, putting 2012 a bit behind 2003 in terms of overall industry profitability.
