South Florida’s leading community banks are represented on the list that follows.
The list is ranked by total assets as of June 30, 2018.

The 2018 Q2 Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) banking profile highlights show a 21.1 percent net income increase from 2017 for community banks across the board. Mergers notwithstanding, many of the banks on the list have increased numbers in all of the categories we looked at—total assets, total deposits and net loans and leases. Miami-based City National Bank of Florida showed the greatest year-over-year increase in assets, with growth of $5.2 billion.

Doral’s U.S. Century Bank topped the $1 billion mark in assets and Professional Bank of Coral Gables grew by $180 million. Banco do Brasil Americas also raised its bar by $100 million. The FDIC’s national report on net income increase for community banks points to a lower effective tax rate as a contributing factor to the increases. Gains from sales of other assets and higher servicing fees were cited as contributors as well. SFBW commends and congratulates all the community banks on the list which make our region stand out.
