Net Interest Margin (NIM) NIM continues to reflect the benefit to asset yields from the increases in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate during 2018 and the higher margins on the acquired Farmers Capital net assets plus purchase accounting, partially offset by higher overall funding costs and a flattening of the yield curveNIM improvement benefits from future loan repricing with partial offsets from the factors affecting NIMs across the industry, including a very flat spread between the 2-year to 10-year Treasury yields and an overall low long-term rate environmentCore deposit funding advantage, combined with a low loan-to-deposit ratio, will help to maintain overall deposit funding costs 15 Net Interest Margin (FTE) Note: the “yield curve” represents the spread difference in the market yields for the 2-year and 10-year U.S. Treasury securities; the spread was ~125bp at 12/31/2016 and declined to ~17bp at 3/31/2019 (source: Federal Reserve H.15 Selected Interest Rates)
