Despite these changes and the Federal Reserve’s aggressive interest rate policy leading to increased funding costs, Comerica is holding steady on its net interest income (NII) projections. The bank anticipates a sequential NII decline of about 5-6% but expects this to be counterbalanced by a strong loan pipeline that supports a forecasted 7% loan growth in 2023.

The bank’s loan growth has been consistent, with a five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.9%. Furthermore, NII has experienced robust growth with a three-year CAGR of 13.6% and is projected to increase by 1-2% this year.

A significant factor impacting the bank’s expenses is an expected Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) special assessment of $109 million for the fourth quarter, which will contribute to an approximate 3% increase in non-interest expenses.
