As of 3Q16, ag loans represented 25% of the total portfolio (36% in grains, 50% in proteins and 14% in other). Tied for first at 38% as a reason why investors are hesitant to increase exposure to GWB resonates from the bank’s ag exposure. While lower grain prices may constrain cash flow on those loans near- term, Mr. Chapman noted that this is offset by stronger yields.

Although management is comfortable with its current capital levels (3Q: 9.5% tier 1 leverage), Mr. Chapman noted the bank’s preference is to put its excess capital to work.

Moreover, management sounded cautiously optimistic that pro-growth policies (if implemented) coupled with some relief on the regulatory front under the new Trump administration could lead to a much stronger growth outlook ¢ Energy credit costs should trend lower: Management noted the overall energy portfolio should continue to trend lower but is expected to moderate as run-off in stressed energy loans (and loan payoffs) are partially offset by new energy loans, with management looking to selectively lend again in the sector. Moreover, with energy criticized loans peaking in 1Q16, management expects the criticized loans to trend lower barring any major declines in oil prices. eat Bankof America 20 2016 Future of Financials Conference | 17 November 2016 Merrill Lynch HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_014334
