Press Release |
| For Immediate Release | September 19, 2000 |
The June 30, 2000 Uniform Bank Performance Report (UBPR) now being distributed to all insured commercial banks and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation - Insured Savings Banks (FDIC-ISB) is now available for sale to the public. For the most part, the formats for the commercial banks and the FDIC-ISB are identical; however, the FDIC-ISB has its own unique UBPR peer groupings.
Several changes were made to the UBPR that will improve the analysis of banks that elect subchapter S treatment for taxes. Additionally, the method of calculating peer group data was changed to a trimmed average. As a result, some data may change. Please see the FFIEC web-site. www.ffiec.gov for details.
The quarterly UBPR is designed for use by bank examiners, financial analysts and bank managers, and permits both summary and in-depth analysis of commercial banks plus FDIC-ISB financial performance and trends.
The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) is again making available computer tapes of UBPR data for the June 30, 2000 edition. These tapes contain bulk data for banks, peer groups and states, and are expected to be of interest to requestors who use large-scale bank data such as quarterly Call Report tapes.
The FFIEC is also making available the June 30, 2000 version of the UBPR Peer Group Ratio Distribution Report and the UBPR State Average Ratio Distribution Report. These reports give users a complete ratio distribution ranging from the 1st through the 99th percentile for all UBPR ratio values. The ratio values are presented for each UBPR group, and use the same definitions used in the UBPR Bank Report.
The User's Guide for the Uniform Bank Performance Report revised March 1999 is available at: WWW.FFIEC.GOV
