Banking and Finance
While the economy continues its expansion there is concern that higher interest rates, tighter lending standards and a shift towards national banks from regional financial institutions could choke off the recovery. With the failure of Silicon Valley Bank, First Republic Bank and Signature Bank in the rear view mirror, The UCLA Anderson Forecast with the Fink Center for Finance examines the landscape of finance and banking and the implications of recent trends for the 2024 economy.
