Its loans fell 38%, to 59 from 95, while similar lenders (savings institutions making between half and twice as many loans) grew 1% and the whole market 10%. Fewer than one in twenty peers shrank faster. The longer slide is larger still: it made 293 loans in 2020 and 207 in 2021. For a lender this size a few dozen loans make a big difference, and it may have chosen to lend less or lost borrowers to larger rivals.
