National Context
What is the Efficiency Ratio?
A bank's efficiency ratio is its noninterest expense divided by its net interest income plus its noninterest income, expressed as a percentage. It shows how many cents the bank spends to earn each dollar of revenue, so a lower ratio is better.
Compare banks of similar size and business model. Very small banks rarely run below 60% because fixed costs are spread over less revenue, and fee-heavy banks with trust or mortgage businesses carry higher expense against their revenue. The trend matters as much as the level: a rising ratio means expenses are growing faster than revenue. A very low ratio can also mean underinvestment in staff or systems.
