Trends & Forecasts

Anticipate the balance sheet as the market and strategy change.

Every metric projects forward from one canonical state — net interest income, the full balance sheet, cash, funding, forward rates, and the capital and liquidity ratios — across any horizon, at any granularity; a three-year, quarter-by-quarter view is illustrated below. Change a rate path or a business assumption once and every projection re-derives together.

How forecasting works

How the engine projects forward.

Each method runs against the same canonical state, so results are directly comparable — and any method can challenge another.

Business-as-usual baseline

Forward-implied projection

Market forward curves drive repricing, reinvestment, and new-business yields — a market-consistent path with no manual rate view.

Output · market-consistent path

Driver-based business plan

Management growth, volume, and spread assumptions by segment translate into a projected balance sheet and earnings plan.

Output · plan vs. actual

Runoff & replicating portfolio

Contractual and behavioral runoff plus replicating-portfolio reinvestment age the existing book forward realistically.

Output · maturity & reprice ladder

Stress & scenario

Deterministic scenarios

Base, rising, and falling rate paths run through the canonical state. Every metric reprices on the same explicit assumptions.

Output · point estimate per path

Stochastic / Monte Carlo

Thousands of correlated rate and balance paths produce full distributions — percentiles and tail outcomes, not a single line.

Output · P5–P95 ranges

Macro / econometric

Regressions link GDP, unemployment, and home prices to balances, deposit betas, and losses — aligning forecast with stress.

What gets forecast

Every metric projects together.

Deposit behavior

Balance, pricing & behavior. Across every Fed regime.

Deposit balance and pricing models are calibrated in a single framework (alongside mortgage prepayment), so a pricing change flows consistently into behavioral response, funding stability, and market share — then conditioned on the prevailing Fed policy regime. These assumptions feed the NII, cash, and liquidity forecasts on this page.

Deposit balance & pricing model

Pricing, behavioral response & market share.

Deposit balance and pricing models are calibrated in one framework (alongside mortgage prepayment), so a pricing change flows consistently into behavioral response, funding stability, and market share — especially during large market moves. Each segment carries up- and down-rate betas (pass-through), a behavioral life, and a non-core share that prices like wholesale funding.

Deposit market share vs. relative pricing

illustrative

Share rises with relative pricing; the model solves the share-versus-cost-of-funds trade-off rather than assuming a fixed balance.

Fed regime modeling

Regime-switching betas & runoff.

Deposit behavior is not static. Rate regimes — hiking, on-hold, cutting — reprice deposits (they move betas). Balance-sheet regimes — QE and QT — change the total volume of deposits in the system. Select a regime to re-flow betas, runoff, and volume.

From forecast to action

The tickets the engine proposes.

When the forecast surfaces a gap, the optimizer generates the actual trade and funding tickets to close it — each priced with its full impact on earnings, capital, and liquidity before you execute.

Input your own desired trades, or let the optimizer solve for the least-cost set based on your defined constraints — the engine prices the full impact on earnings, capital, and liquidity either way.
