A Trader’s Perspective

Liquidity continues to be a top-of-mind issue for community banks.  As banks continue to explore possible funding sources, we have seen a noticeable pickup in short 2-year to 3-year final maturity callable CDs with a short initial lockout period of 3 months or 6 months.  We usually like the idea of issuing callable CDs to add flexibility to a bank’s balance sheet (especially when it only costs 5-10 bps additional spread to a bullet or when issuing longer than a 3-year final).  Currently we would urge you to scrutinize why you are looking at issuing these shorter (<3yr final) callable maturities.

If your intent is to call these CDs within 3-6 months, you are better served to issue a short 3 or 6-month CD or advance (see below cost of funds to call date for 2-3 year callable CDs).  If it is highly likely you will hold onto these CDs until final maturity in 2-3 years, we would advocate issuing bullets which are trading considerably cheaper by 25-60 bps. 



Cost of Funds to Call Dates
Currently, fed funds futures are implying future rates to trend down to 4% by year end 2024, while the Fed’s own average forecast remains below 5% as well.  We would strongly urge you to consider keeping advances / funding short so you can reprice these sources of liquidity when rates fall.
