VANCOUVER, Wash. — According to a report from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., Washington banks have twice the percentage of non-performing loans as the national average.
The Vancouver Columbian reports that Thursday’s FDIC report listed a 9.2 percent ratio of non-performing loans for Washington’s 81 banks. That compares with a 4.4 rate nationally in the second quarter.
The FDIC-insured banks in Washington reported a combined quarterly loss of $522 million, compared with a $74 million profit a year ago.
