Regions Financial (RF.N), opens new tab reported a 14% fall in its second-quarter profit on Friday, as the lender earned less from customers’ interest payments.
Some customers have been avoiding taking on debt as the U.S. Federal Reserve has continued to keep interest rates high to curb inflationary pressures.
Regions’ net interest income (NII) — the difference between what a bank earns on loans and pays out on deposits — fell 14% to $1.2 billion in the quarter ended June 30.
