In a market defined by uncertainty, standing still on the balance sheet may be the biggest risk of all. Zach Zoia of Darling Consulting Group—and co‑host of the On the Balance Sheet podcast—joins us to unpack how financial institutions should be thinking about rate risk, balance sheet strategy, and margin pressures amid persistent yield curve volatility. We dive into how recent global events, including heightened geopolitical tensions, private credit stress, and shifting risk appetite, are influencing bank decision‑making today—and why loan and deposit pricing discipline will matter more than ever as we move into 2026. Whether you’re re‑evaluating your tolerance for risk or wondering where margin tailwinds (and headwinds) may emerge, this conversation offers practical insights for ALCO and executive teams navigating what’s next.
