In this video, Ted outlines the 5 key things to look for in a bank’s annual report. These include: how a bank funds its loan book; the relationship between the amount of equity and the total assets of the bank; the relationship between net interest income and other income; the amount being spent on costs as a proportion of total income; and whether it is adequately providing for non-performing loans.

A commercial bank’s profit will primarily come from the difference between the rate paid on deposits and the rates charged on loans; this difference is known as the Net Interest Income. An investment bank will generate most of its profits from fees.
The largest cost of a bank is typically staff. Ensuring that these costs are covered is essential to profitability.
Capital adequacy essentially refers to the amount of shareholders’ funds that are available to absorb any losses and ensure that the bank does not default on depositors.
Commercial banks are primarily funded through deposits with additional funds gained from issuing bonds. A third source of funding is inter-bank lending, but should not make up a material proportion of the overall funding model.
Statistically not all loans will be repaid. From missed interest payments to borrowers who have declared bankruptcy, a bank must monitor its loan book and ensure that the provisions for losses on loans are adequate.
