A Steady Beginning to 2025 for Wisconsin Banks According to Latest FDIC Data

Numbers released May 28, 2025, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) showed a steady start to 2025 by Wisconsin banks. Residential real estate lending (8.67%), farm lending (8.95%), and commercial lending (5.00%) all increased over the prior year. Deposits increased year over year (5.63%). The Q1 2025 net interest margin increased (3.33%) from the prior quarter (3.22%) and prior year (3.10%). Wisconsin banks remain well capitalized. 

Notable indicators include: 

  • Farm lending increased quarter over quarter (8.78%) which extended the pace year over year (8.95%) as banks continue to help farmers with their operational needs.  
  • Commercial lending slowed in growth slightly quarter over quarter (2.43%) from the year over year (5.00%) increase as commercial customers adjust to impacts of global economic challenges.  
  • Residential real estate loans increased year over year (8.67%) yet decreased quarter over quarter (-16.05%) as inventory remains limited and the marketplace competitive from non-traditional lenders.  
  • Assets in nonaccrual status increased both quarter over quarter (8.74%) and year over year (2.20%) as ongoing inflation and the high cost of living impact borrowers.  

Statement on the release of first-quarter 2025 Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) numbers from Rose Oswald Poels, president and CEO of the Wisconsin Bankers Association:  

“The first-quarter FDIC numbers reflect that 2025 has started off steady for Wisconsin Banks with all areas of lending increasing year over year. The increase in farm and commercial lending continued through the first quarter. The data also reflects that Wisconsin’s residential real estate market continues to be competitive. Across all categories of lending, banks continue to monitor credit quality and work with struggling borrowers as Wisconsin banks remain well positioned to continue to help meet the needs of their customers and communities.”

Over 320 Bankers Attend Wisconsin Bankers Association Capitol Day

Over 320 bankers representing more than 70 banks from across Wisconsin attended this year’s Wisconsin Bankers Association (WBA) Capitol Day. This annual event allows bankers to join together to meet with elected representatives to share how much public policy can impact a bank’s ability to aid the economic growth and vitality of their communities. These critical meetings help illustrate just how integral banks are in keeping their communities thriving.

“I am excited to see how each year brings more and more bankers to this event for the opportunity to both discuss important priorities and develop stronger relationships with legislative representatives,” said Rose Oswald Poels, WBA president and CEO. “These meaningful discussions allow for direct dialog between constituents and their elected officials on changes needed to help banks better serve their customers and communities.”

During the meetings bankers shared how each gives back and supports their communities and discussed key issues such as credit card interchange fees, state privacy regulations, tax parity, and the need for further protections of seniors from financial exploitation or fraud.

In a panel discussion led by WisPolitics.com President Jeff Mayers, participants also heard insights and perspectives from legislative leadership which included Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, Senate Minority Leader Dianne Hesselbein, and Assembly Assistant Minority Leader Kalan Haywood. Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions Secretary-designate Wendy K. Baumann also addressed the attendees over lunch.

Wisconsin Banks Ended 2024 in a Healthy Position According to Latest FDIC Data

Numbers released today by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) showed Wisconsin banks rounding out 2024 in a strong position. Residential real estate lending increased over the prior year (15.46%), farm lending held steady (1.83%), and commercial lending increased (3.69%). Deposits increased year over year (5.06%). The Q4 2024 net interest margin of 3.22% is a slight increase over the prior quarter (3.18%) and prior year (3.20%). Wisconsin banks remain well capitalized. 

Notable indicators include: 

  • Residential real estate loans increased substantially quarter over quarter (17.15%) and slightly year over year (15.46%). Inventory continues to be very limited, and homeowners who refinanced at low interest rates during the pandemic have little incentive to move. Buyers have become accustomed to the current interest rate environment and higher home prices. Use of home equity lines of credit are reflected in the increase. 
  • Commercial lending held steady quarter over quarter (0.55%) and grew moderately year over year (3.69%) as Wisconsin banks continued to meet customer needs. 
  • Farm loans decreased significantly quarter over quarter (-20.66%) and held steady year over year (1.83%) as farmers struggled with commodity prices, weather, and tight operational costs. 
  • Assets in nonaccrual status decreased slightly quarter over quarter (-2.17%) and remained elevated year over year (14.81%) as inflation and the high cost of living impact borrowers. While banks continue to monitor credit quality, the current level of past-due loans remains above recessionary levels. 

Statement on the release of fourth-quarter 2024 Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) numbers from Rose Oswald Poels, president and CEO of the Wisconsin Bankers Association:  

“The fourth-quarter FDIC numbers show the year 2024 ended on a solid note with Wisconsin’s banks in a strong position. Residential real estate loans increased as the state’s housing market saw activity in the last two months of the year despite low inventory. Commercial lending also saw an increase while farm loan demand held steady as farmers work through commodity prices, weather challenges, and high operational costs. Wisconsin’s banks continue to meet the lending and deposit needs of their communities.”

Bank of Sun Prairie Named 2024 WBF Financial Education Innovation Award Winner

Wisconsin Bankers Foundation Recognizes Initiative of Bank of Sun Prairie and St. Vincent de Paul 

Jimmy Kauffman, Bank of Sun Prairie president and CEO (holding award); and colleagues accept the 2024 Wisconsin Bankers Foundation Financial Education Innovation Award from Rose Oswald Poels, Wisconsin Bankers Association president and CEO and WBF chair and treasurer; and Alvaro Araque, WBA chair.

The Wisconsin Bankers Foundation (WBF) is pleased to announce that Bank of Sun Prairie has been selected as the recipient of the 2024 Financial Education Innovation Award. The award was presented on February 6, 2025, at the largest banking industry event in the state, the Wisconsin Bankers Association (WBA) Bank Executives Conference, in Milwaukee.

“It is important to raise awareness that when unexpected expenses hit, banks offer much better alternatives to high-interest payday loans,” said Rose Oswald Poels, WBF chair and WBA president and CEO. “Bank of Sun Prairie’s partnership with St. Vincent de Paul is an outstanding program that connects people who are experiencing financial hardship with resources to get them back on solid financial footing.”

Bank of Sun Prairie has created a unique partnership with St. Vincent de Paul in Madison to provide microloans of around $500–$2,500. The program not only helps borrowers avoid costly payday or title loans, it also comes with financial literacy support. Participants are coached each month to help them find ways to make the minimum payment. One recipient, Terri, was able to pay off her car title loan and secure a low-interest loan with the bank. Terri’s monthly payment dropped from $437/month at 305% interest to $74/month at 5% interest, and she could afford to stay in her new apartment rather than become unhoused. The program also connects people with the bank’s Fresh Start Checking Accounts, which can help those who have had challenges with using and keeping a checking account in the past to move forward.

The WBF Financial Education Innovation Award is a prestigious category of the WBF Excellence in Financial Education Awards. Submissions for the 2024 WBF Excellence in Financial Education Awards encompassed over 900 financial education presentations — including Teach Children to Save Day presentations, homeownership workshops, and elder financial abuse prevention seminars, among other initiatives — given by more than 400 Wisconsin bank employees, reaching approximately 30,000 Wisconsin community members.

Latest FDIC Data Highlights Strong Performance of Wisconsin Banks

On December 12, 2024, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) released numbers showing Wisconsin banks continued to be in a healthy position through the third quarter of 2024. While residential real estate lending dipped slightly over the prior year (-2.34%), farm lending held steady (-0.29%) and commercial lending increased (2.50%). Deposits increased year over year (3.53%), due in part to the high interest rates offered on certificates of deposit (CDs) and money market accounts. The Q3 2024 net interest margin of 3.18% is a slight decrease over the prior year (3.19%) but an increase over the prior quarter (3.14%). Wisconsin banks remain well capitalized. 

Notable indicators include: 

  • Residential real estate loans decreased slightly year over year (-2.34%). Inventory continues to be very limited, and homeowners who refinanced at low interest rates during the pandemic have little incentive to move. Seasonal trends in housing sales played into the decrease from the prior quarter (-11.70%) with spring typically being the most popular time to move in Wisconsin. 
  • Commercial lending saw modest growth year over year (2.50%) and quarter over quarter (1.19%) as the Fed began easing interest rates in September. 
  • Farm loans held steady year over year (-0.29%) and increased quarter over quarter (4.68%) as farmers sought to upgrade equipment, make capital improvements, or manage operational costs affected by tighter margins. 
  • Past-due loans were elevated year over year (19.30%) and quarter over quarter (6.55%) as inflation and the high cost of living impacts borrowers. While banks continue to monitor credit quality, the current level of past-due loans remains above recessionary levels. 

Statement on the release of third-quarter 2024 Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) numbers from Rose Oswald Poels, president and CEO of the Wisconsin Bankers Association:  

“The latest FDIC report underscores the continued strength and adaptability of Wisconsin banks. While monitoring the effects of inflation, Wisconsin’s banks remain well capitalized and continue to meet the needs of their communities. A decrease in interest rates in September helped commercial borrowers’ lending needs and allowed banks the opportunity to support those customers’ growth and financial goals.”
