Deltec Bank released a summary of key indicators regarding its financial health and stability going into H2 2023, demonstrating that its conservative strategy continues to serve as one of its core strengths:
The outlook for Deltec Bank in the second half of 2023 is highly positive, as the Bank looks forward to maintaining its upward trajectory.
Deltec Bank has a strong 77-year history serving global, rapidly-scaling entrepreneurs – where speed, innovation, reliability, and security remain paramount. The Bank has focused on designing a business model that can withstand the pressure of an ever-changing financial environment by adhering to strict oversight and fiduciary principles, maintaining strong capital and liquidity, and keeping a conservative balance sheet.
Deltec Bank recently released its audited financial statements as of December 31, 2022 at https://www.deltecbank.com/independent-auditors-report-2023.
They indicate whether any bank has enough capital to withstand losses in its assets. They are calculated as capital to risk-adjusted assets. Capital refers to the money a bank has raised through debt, equity, or profit. Risk-adjusted assets refer to the assets a bank holds weighted by their relative safety, with virtually riskless positions, such as U.S. treasury bills given 0% weightings and private loans often weighted much higher.
Deltec Bank’s capital ratio demonstrates its leading strength relative to its international peers. A reading of 19% states that the Bank’s capital stands at 19% of all risk-adjusted assets, well above the minimum requirement of 10.5% under Basil III rules.
Liquidity measures the bank’s ability to handle upcoming expenses and liabilities. It is calculated as current assets to current liabilities, with “current” referring to a period of less than 12 months. Often, the liquidity ratio is referred to as the current ratio for this reason.
A ratio markedly below 100%, such as 60%, suggests mismanagement or poor company health. The target range, which Deltec Bank satisfies at a solid 96%, stands between approximately 100% and 200%. An excessively high liquidity ratio suggests that assets are not being used effectively.
