Jan 31 (Reuters) - Regional U.S. banks' shares sank on
Wednesday, dragged down by a 46% plunge in the shares of New
York Community Bancorp NYCB.N after it cut its dividend and
posted a surprise loss.
The dividend was cut to bolster its capital as NYCB prepares
to deal with potentially stricter regulation for banks with more
than $100 billion of assets. The purchase of some Signature Bank
assets last year along with the acquisition of Flagstar in 2022
pushed the bank's assets above that threshold.
Here are a few other U.S. mid-sized banks that either have
more than $100 billion in assets or are nearing the threshold:
Bank Name Consolidated Assets (In Bln)
HSBC North America $161.30
Holdings
Regions Financial $152.91
Corp RF.N
Northern Trust $145.82

Discover Financial $141.24

New York Community $111.17
