The Company uses state-of-the-art computer and telecommunications technology to process customer transactions, provide customer information, and increase the efficiency of its data processing activities. BayBank Systems, Inc., a nonbank subsidiary of the Company, engages in data processing, product and systems development, and other technologically oriented operations, principally for the Company but also for franchisees and correspondents. In particular, BayBank Systems, Inc., operates the Company's proprietary X-Press 24(R) automated teller machine ("ATM") network. BayBanks Credit Corp. (a subsidiary of BayBank Systems, Inc.) and BayBanks Mortgage Corp. (a subsidiary of BayBank) provide instalment loan, credit card, and mortgage loan operations and services, and BayBanks Mortgage Corp. also services approximately $2.0 billion of residential mortgage loans originated by the BayBanks and placed in the secondary market. Other subsidiaries provide brokerage, investment management, and general management services to the BayBanks and other affiliates.
The following presents selected financial information for the Company's three banking subsidiaries:
GENERAL BANKING BUSINESS
The Company provides a complete range of banking and related financial services, with particular emphasis on retail and middle market business customers. In addition to its normal deposit and lending activities, the Company aggressively pursues fee income opportunities, both in traditional and automated banking services and in the investment field, including acting as investment adviser and shareholder servicing agent for BayFunds(R), a proprietary mutual fund family.
Retail Banking
The Company -- a recognized leader in consumer banking -- has the largest retail market share in Massachusetts. More households in Massachusetts do business with the BayBanks than with any other banking organization. The Company offers a wide variety of retail banking products, including FDIC-insured checking, money market, savings, and time deposit accounts; credit cards; home mortgages and home equity financing; instalment loans; and trust and private banking services.
The Company's proprietary X-Press 24 network, the 11th largest ATM network in the country, operates over 1,000 ATMs in Massachusetts and Connecticut and produces approximately 11 million transactions per month; the Company has approximately 1 million ATM cards in use. In addition, the BayBank X-Press 24 Cash(R) network operates cash machines located in major retail stores in Massachusetts. Approximately 88 nonaffiliated financial institutions are X-Press 24 network members. X-Press 24 cardholders can perform automated banking transactions at over 65,000 CIRRUS(R) and NYCE(R) terminals worldwide. Qualifying cardholders can also use their cards to make point-of-sale purchases at retail establishments worldwide, including Mobil(R) stations, grocery stores and, through BayBank X-Press Check(R), anywhere MasterCard(R) is accepted. The Company provides a broad range of support and maintenance services to the X-Press 24 network member institutions. In addition to its branch and ATM networks, the Company operates a customer service center twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, that provides customer service and product information, opens consumer banking accounts, and fills customer orders, including those from its catalog of banking services.
Corporate Banking
The Company provides a comprehensive range of cash management, credit, deposit, international banking, and related services to businesses, hospitals, educational institutions, and local governments, with particular emphasis on the Massachusetts middle market. Specialized products available to BayBanks' business and governmental customers include personal computer-based cash management services with which a customer may perform a range of deposit account transactions; X-Press Trade(R), offering automated international letter of credit services; BayBank X-Press Tax(R) for automated payroll tax depositing; a Collateralized Municipal Money Market Account; and the Escrow Client Account Service. BayBank also acts as corporate trustee for bond offerings and as trustee or custodian for employee benefit and pension plans.
Specific lending groups focus on healthcare and educational institutions, municipalities, retailers, automobile dealers, and emerging technology companies. The Company also provides secured financing, in the form of asset-based lending, leasing, and real estate lending, for commercial customers. The Company's general corporate lending activities are directed toward small and middle market companies in the New England region, with a primary emphasis on Massachusetts enterprises.
Investment Services
The Company's subsidiaries offer a wide range of investment services to individuals and business customers. The government and municipal securities dealerships at BayBank Boston, N.A., participate in the underwriting of Massachusetts municipal obligations and engage in private placement activities. BayBanks Brokerage Services, Inc., provides retail brokerage services. BayBanks Investment Management, Inc., a registered investment adviser, provides portfolio advice and asset management for individuals and businesses and manages the BayBank trust department's common and collective trust funds. As of December 31, 1993, the BayBank trust department had total assets of $5.2 billion under management or in custody. BayBanks Investment Management, Inc., acts as investment adviser to several portfolios of BayFunds, a proprietary mutual fund family, and BayBank Boston, N.A. acts as investment adviser to one other BayFunds portfolio. BayFunds added equity and bond portfolios to its existing money market portfolio during the first quarter of 1993.
COMPETITION
The BayBanks operate in a highly competitive banking market. All of the banks compete with other commercial banks in their respective service areas, with several large commercial banks located in the City of Boston, and with a number of large regional and national commercial banks located throughout the country. Legislation enacted in recent years and changing regulatory interpretations have substantially increased the geographic and product competition among commercial banks, thrift institutions, mortgage companies, leasing companies, credit unions, finance companies, and nonbanking institutions, including mutual funds, insurance companies, brokerage firms, investment banks, and a variety of financial services and advisory companies. In the international business, the BayBanks compete with other domestic banks having foreign operations and with major foreign banks and other financial institutions.
GOVERNMENT MONETARY POLICY
The earnings and growth of the banking industry in general are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board"). An important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate the national money supply. Among the instruments of monetary policy used by the Federal Reserve Board to implement its objectives are open market operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rates on member bank borrowings, and changes in amount or methods of calculating reserve requirements against member banks' deposits. These means, used in varying combinations, influence the overall growth of bank loans, investments, and deposits as well as the rates charged on loans or paid for deposits. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to have such an effect in the future. The effect of such policies upon the future business and earnings of the Company cannot be predicted.
GENERAL BANKING REGULATION
The Company is a bank holding company subject to supervision and regulation by the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. As a bank holding company, the activities of the Company and its bank and nonbank subsidiaries are limited to the business of banking and activities closely related or incidental to banking. The Company may not acquire the ownership or control of more than 5% of any class of voting shares or substantially all of the assets of any company, including a bank, without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. The Company is also subject to the Massachusetts and Connecticut bank holding company laws that, respectively require the Company to obtain the prior approval of the Massachusetts Board of Bank Incorporation and the Connecticut Banking Commissioner for holding company mergers and bank acquisitions.
The Company's largest subsidiary bank, BayBank, is subject to supervision and examination by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and the Commissioner of Banks of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts ("Bank Commissioner"). BayBank Boston, N.A. and BayBank Connecticut, N.A., are national banking associations subject to supervision and examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC"). All of the Company's subsidiary banks are insured by and subject to certain regulations of the FDIC. They are also subject to various requirements and restrictions under federal and state law, which include requirements to obtain regulatory approval of certain business transactions, including establishing and closing bank branches; requirements to maintain reserves against deposits; restrictions on the types and amounts of loans that may be granted and the interest that may be charged thereon; and limitations on the types of investments that may be made and the types of services that may be offered. Various consumer laws and regulations also affect the operations of the Company's subsidiary banks.
Under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, a depository institution insured by the FDIC can be held liable for any loss incurred by, or reasonably expected to be incurred by, the FDIC in connection with (i) the default of a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution or (ii) any assistance provided by the FDIC to a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution in danger of default. Because the Company is a holding company, its right to participate in the assets of any
subsidiary upon the latter's liquidation or reorganization will be subject to the prior claims of the subsidiary's creditors (including depositors in the case of bank subsidiaries), except to the extent that the Company may itself be a creditor with recognized claims against the subsidiary.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") provided for increased funding for FDIC deposit insurance and for expanded regulation of the banking industry.
Among other things, FDICIA requires the federal banking regulators to take prompt corrective action with respect to depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. FDICIA establishes five capital ratio categories: "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized," and "critically undercapitalized."
A depository institution is well capitalized if it significantly exceeds the minimum level required by regulation for each relevant capital measure, adequately capitalized if it meets each such measure, undercapitalized if it fails to meet any such measure, significantly undercapitalized if it is significantly below any such measure, and critically undercapitalized if it fails to meet any critical capital level set forth in the regulations. The critical capital level must be a level of tangible equity equal to at least 2% of total assets, but may be fixed at a higher level by regulation. A depository institution may be deemed to be in a capitalization category that is lower than is indicated by its actual capital position if it receives an unsatisfactory examination rating and may be reclassified to a lower category by action based on other supervisory criteria. For an institution to be well capitalized it must have a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 6%, and a leverage ratio of at least 5% and not be subject to any specific capital order or directive. For an institution to be adequately capitalized it must have a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 8%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 4%, and a leverage ratio of at least 4% (3% in some cases).
FDICIA generally prohibits a depository institution from making any capital distribution (including payment of a dividend) or paying any management fee to its holding company if the depository institution would thereafter be undercapitalized. Undercapitalized depository institutions are subject to increased regulatory monitoring and growth limitations and are required to submit capital restoration plans. A depository institution's holding company must guarantee the capital plan, up to an amount equal to the lesser of 5% of the depository institution's assets at the time it becomes undercapitalized or the amount needed to comply with the plan. The federal banking agencies may not accept a capital plan without determining, among other things, that the plan is based on realistic assumptions and is likely to succeed in restoring the depository institution's capital. If a depository institution fails to submit an acceptable plan, it is treated as if it is significantly undercapitalized. Significantly undercapitalized depository institutions may be subject to a number of requirements and restrictions, including orders to sell sufficient voting stock to become adequately capitalized, requirements to reduce total assets, and cessation of receipt of deposits from correspondent banks. Critically undercapitalized depository institutions are subject to appointment of a receiver or conservator.
Each of the bank subsidiaries of the Company exceeds current minimum regulatory capital requirements and qualify as well capitalized under the regulations relating to prompt corrective action (see "Regulatory Capital Requirements").
The FDIC has adopted regulations governing the receipt of brokered deposits that require certain banks, depending on their capital ratios and other factors, to obtain a waiver from the FDIC before they may accept brokered deposits, and that limit the interest rates certain banks can offer on deposits. Although the Company does not solicit brokered deposits, all of its bank subsidiaries are free to do so without restraint under the regulation.
Under FDIC's risk-based deposit insurance premium system for the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"), which went into effect on January 1, 1993, banks currently pay within a range of 23 cents per $100 of domestic deposits (the prior rate for all institutions) to 31 cents per $100 of domestic deposits, depending on their risk classification. To arrive at a risk-based assessment for each bank, the FDIC places the bank in one of nine risk categories, using a two-step process based first on capital ratios and then on other relevant supervisory information. Each institution is assigned to one of three groups (well capitalized, adequately capitalized, or undercapitalized) based on its capital ratios. For these purposes, a well capitalized institution is one that has at
least a 10% total risk-based capital ratio, a 6% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and a 5% Tier 1 leverage capital ratio. An adequately capitalized institution must have at least an 8% total risk-based capital ratio, a 4% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and a 4% Tier 1 leverage capital ratio. An undercapitalized institution is one that does not meet either of the foregoing definitions. Each institution is also assigned to one of three supervisory subgroups based on an evaluation of the risk posed by the institution to the BIF. Well capitalized banks presenting the lowest risk to the BIF pay the lowest assessment rate, while undercapitalized banks presenting the highest risk pay the highest rate. The BayBanks' capital ratios at December 31, 1993, placed them in the well capitalized category for assessment purposes. The assessment will depend upon the level of deposit balances and the BayBanks' applicable risk categories (see "Regulatory Capital Requirements").
Other significant provisions of FDICIA require federal banking regulators to draft standards in a number of areas to assure bank safety and soundness, including internal controls; credit underwriting; asset growth; management compensation; ratios of classified assets to capital; and earnings. The legislation also contains provisions that require the adoption of capital guidelines applicable to interest rate risks; tighten independent auditing requirements; restrict the activities and investments of state-chartered insured banks; strengthen various consumer banking laws; limit the ability of undercapitalized banks to borrow from the Federal Reserve's discount window; and require regulators to perform annual on-site bank examinations and set standards for real estate lending.
The full impact of FDICIA will not be completely known until the adoption by the various federal banking agencies of all of the implementing regulations. However, FDICIA has resulted in increased costs for the banking industry due to higher FDIC assessments and increased compliance burdens. Otherwise, FDICIA has not had an adverse effect on the Company's operations.
REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
Under the three federal banking regulators' risk-based capital measures for banks and bank holding companies a banking organization's reported balance sheet is converted to risk-based amounts by assigning each asset to a risk category, which is then multiplied by the risk weight for that category. Off-balance sheet exposures are converted to risk-based amounts through a two-step process. First, off-balance sheet assets and credit equivalent amounts (e.g., interest rate swaps) are multiplied by a credit conversion factor depending on the defined categorization of the particular item. Then the converted items are assigned to a risk category that weights the items according to their relative risk.
The total of the risk-weighted on-and off-balance sheet amounts represents a banking organization's risk-adjusted assets for purposes of determining capital ratios under the risk-based guidelines. Risk-adjusted assets can either exceed or be less than reported assets, depending on the risk profile of the banking organization. Risk-adjusted assets for institutions such as the Company will generally be less than reported assets because retail banking activities include proportionally more residential real estate loans with a lower risk rating and a relatively small off-balance sheet position.
A banking organization's total qualifying capital includes two components, core capital (Tier 1 capital) and supplementary capital (Tier 2 capital). Core capital, which must comprise at least half of total capital, includes common stockholders' equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock, and minority interests, less goodwill. Supplementary capital includes the allowance for loan losses (subject to certain limitations), other perpetual preferred stock, certain other capital instruments, and term subordinated debt, which is discounted at 20% a year during its final five years of maturity. The Company's major capital components include stockholders' equity in core capital, and the allowance for loan losses and grandfathered floating rate notes, subject to a 40% discounting in the fourth quarter of 1993, in supplementary capital.
At December 31, 1993, the minimum risk-based capital requirements were 4.00% for core capital and 8.00% for total capital. Federal banking regulators have also adopted leverage capital guidelines to supplement the risk-based measures. The leverage ratio is determined by dividing Tier 1 capital as defined under the risk-based guidelines by average total assets (not risk-adjusted) for the preceding quarter. The minimum leverage ratio is 3.00%, although banking organizations are expected to exceed that amount by 100 or 200 basis points or more, depending upon their circumstances.
At December 31, 1993, the Company's consolidated risk-based capital ratios were 10.68% for core capital and 12.40% for total capital, and at December 31, 1992, were 10.37% and 12.30%, respectively. The Company's consolidated leverage ratio was 7.26% at December 31, 1993, and 6.79% at December 31, 1992. These ratios exceeded the minimum regulatory guidelines.
During the fourth quarter of 1992, the Company completed a public offering of 2.3 million shares of common stock that raised $79.3 million in capital. The Company contributed $8 million in capital to its subsidiaries during 1992 and $22 million during 1993, with the remaining funds held in the parent company's cash and securities portfolios. The Company reinstated its quarterly cash dividend in the first quarter of 1993 at an initial rate of $.20 per share; an equal amount was paid in the second quarter. In the third quarter of 1993, the Company increased its quarterly cash dividend to $.25 per share, which dividend was also paid in the fourth quarter. Total dividends declared for 1993 were $.90 per share. On January 27, 1994, the Board of Directors raised the quarterly dividend amount when it declared a dividend of $.35 per share paid on March 1, 1994.
