Current market forecasts suggest that we will soon see Fed funds, and subsequently, retail and commercial deposit rates, rise in 2022. Banks are anxious to see an expansionary rate regime to push open net interest margins and thus, signal the improving demand for loans. Tepid loan demand and rock-bottom margin spreads have been an anchor on bank earnings over the past year and we are collectively anxious to return to a more traditional rate curve.

Inflation has been prevalent across news and media headlines lately, and for good reason. Supply chains remain somewhat disrupted due to Covid-19 adaptations, the demand for goods is rising, and there is excess liquidity in the money supply. Together, these three forces are lifting prices higher. On the one hand, recent growth in core consumer prices, commodities, equity values, and real estate prices give concern that the market is exuberant. On the other hand, unemployment remains fluid. The current trajectory of the economy could be an indication that we are getting “back on track.

When Will Deposit Rates Rise Again?  
In one way or another, we all have experienced the effects of an ample money supply and shortages, as well as an increased demand for goods. In its effort to tame inflation at full employment, the Fed is expected to implement a first rate hike of 25-50bps as early as April. In the later parts of 2022, we should see an additional three rate hikes which means the Fed rate is likely to increase by 100-150bps by year’s end.

How Can Banks React to Rapidly Rising Rates?  
Different banks will have varying strategies to react to rising rates depending on their current loan-to-deposit ratios, FTP rates and rate movements of their relevant competitors. While determining the ideal Beta is a tactical decision, all banks should be considering the below strategic factors to prepare themselves for the rising rate environment.

- Rising Rate Regime Models
- Relationship Pricing
- Mining Transactional Data

We are poised to enter a rapidly increasing rate environment and it’s clear that waiting for NIM expansion will not improve your bank’s performance today. Dive deeper into this topic by accessing the complete white paper titled: [Deposit Pricing Strategies in a Rising Rate Environment.](https://go.nomissolutions.com/hubfs/Content-Library/White-Papers/Deposit%20Pricing%20Strategies%20in%20a%20Rising%20Rate%20Environment.pdf)
