Lending philosophy and underwriting
- Primary activity: originate fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans for retention in the portfolio, primarily secured by residential and commercial real estate within the primary market area
- Additional lending: home equity loans, lines of credit, consumer loans, and commercial business loans
- Underwriting approach: conservative, with emphasis on borrower cash flow and ability to service debt, collateral value and marketability, borrower character, and other relevant factors
- Appraisal practices: appraisals obtained at origination; updated appraisals for delinquent loans or when collateral value has changed; appraisals generally required for loan modifications or refinancings to confirm collateral adequacy
- Interest rate risk management: mix of fixed- and adjustable-rate loans; typical terms include commercial loans (5–10 years), residential loans (10–20 years), consumer loans (3–5 years). A 30-year fixed-rate term is offered through the Bank’s first-time homebuyer program (30-year amortization).
Competitive landscape
The company competes with traditional lenders (commercial banks, savings banks, mortgage banks, credit unions) and non-depository competitors (mutual funds, brokerage firms, fintechs, insurers). Competition has increased due to interstate banking, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, and consolidation in financial services. The internet is an important factor in deposit and loan origination and other customer services.
Regulatory and governance
The holding company structure and regulatory oversight have evolved over time, including conversion of the holding company to a federal charter and transfer of regulation of savings and loan holding companies to the Federal Reserve under the Dodd-Frank Act. The Bank of Greene County operates under FDIC insurance and complies with banking laws and capital requirements typical for community banks.
