Fewer loans while the market grew
Its loans fell 12%, from 41 to 36, while similar lenders (national banks making between half and twice as many loans) held level and the whole market rose 10%. The bank made 91 loans in 2022 and has made fewer than half that in each year since. The record does not say why, but it made between 44 and 51 loans a year from 2018 to 2020, so the busy years of 2021 and 2022 may have been the exception.
