National Context
What is the Net Charge-Off Ratio?
The Net Charge-Off ratio (annualized) measures loans actually written off as uncollectible (less subsequent recoveries) divided by average loans outstanding. It is the realized credit loss experience of the bank.
Most US community banks report annualized NCO between 0.1% and 0.5%. Consumer-heavy or credit-card-issuing banks can report 2-5% as a normal range (different risk model). Compare to historical trend. Charge-offs lag the cycle: they rise during and after recessions and typically peak several quarters after a downturn starts.
