Banks Ranked by Liquidity Ratio

Top 100 U.S. banks ranked by liquidity ratiohighest is best. The top 50 average 95.05% on this metric and a composite Bank Health Score of 77/100, sourced from the most recent FDIC quarterly Call Report.

What Liquidity Ratio Measures

The liquidity ratio measures how much of a bank's balance sheet is held in cash and short-dated assets that can meet depositor withdrawals or other obligations without forced sales. The 2023 regional bank failures (SVB, First Republic, Signature) were ultimately liquidity events: the underlying bond holdings were money-good if held to maturity, but couldn't be sold quickly enough at par to meet rapid deposit outflows. Higher is better, particularly for banks with concentrated uninsured deposit bases. The metric is reported as LIQR on the Call Report.

Federal regulators — the FDIC, the OCC, and the Federal Reserve — use this metric (and several others) as part of confidential CAMELS examinations, with the public quarterly Call Report data feeding into supervisory analysis. We use the same public input here, applied with a transparent formula across every FDIC-insured institution.

How to Read the Numbers

How to read this number: above 30% is conservative, 15–30% is typical, and below 10% is concerning, particularly for banks with concentrated uninsured deposit bases. Context matters — a bank with a steady retail deposit base can run lower liquidity than one funded by uninsured commercial deposits or wholesale borrowings.

Why This Metric Alone Isn't Enough

Liquidity protects against fast-moving stress; capital protects against slow-moving losses. A bank needs both. The 2023 regional bank failures hit institutions with adequate capital but inadequate liquidity to meet rapid deposit outflows. Pair this metric with capital and credit-quality rankings to cross-check.

How These Ranks Are Calculated

We pull the most recent quarterly value of liquidity ratio for every FDIC-insured bank from the FDIC BankFind API, sort by that single value, and surface the top 100. The composite Bank Health Score (also shown on this page) uses a four-factor formula across capital, credit, liquidity, and profitability — full details on the methodology page.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is liquidity ratio?

The liquidity ratio measures how much of a bank's balance sheet is held in cash and short-dated assets that can meet depositor withdrawals or other obligations without forced sales. The 2023 regional bank failures (SVB, First Republic, Signature) were ultimately liquidity events: the underlying bond holdings were money-good if held to maturity, but couldn't be sold quickly enough at par to meet rapid deposit outflows. Higher is better, particularly for banks with concentrated uninsured deposit bases. The metric is reported as LIQR on the Call Report.

How should I read this number?

How to read this number: above 30% is conservative, 15–30% is typical, and below 10% is concerning, particularly for banks with concentrated uninsured deposit bases. Context matters — a bank with a steady retail deposit base can run lower liquidity than one funded by uninsured commercial deposits or wholesale borrowings. Check the deposit composition on the Call Report Schedule RC-E.

What do the top-ranked banks have in common?

Among the top 50 banks on this list, the average liquidity ratio is 95.05% and the average composite Bank Health Score is 77/100. Top performers tend to be conservatively run, well-capitalized, and concentrated in less volatile loan categories. Higher values on this metric usually correlate with stronger overall scores, but the correlation is imperfect — a bank can lead on one metric while lagging on another.

Should I switch banks based on this ranking alone?

No single metric tells the full story of bank safety. Tier 1 capital, NPL ratio, liquidity, and return on assets each measure different aspects of resilience. The composite Bank Health Score combines all four, weighted by how predictive each has historically been. Use this ranking to compare specific dimensions, but consult the full bank profile and the methodology page before drawing conclusions. And remember: FDIC insurance — not the bank's ranking — protects deposits up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, per ownership category.

Where does this data come from?

Every value is pulled from the FDIC BankFind API, which sources directly from quarterly Call Reports filed with the FFIEC. Specific Call Report field codes used: RBCT1J (Tier 1 capital), NCLNLSR (NPL ratio), LIQR (liquidity), ROAPTX (return on assets). All FDIC and FFIEC data is U.S. government public domain.

Sources: FDIC BankFind API ( banks.data.fdic.gov); FFIEC Call Reports ( cdr.ffiec.gov/public); OCC ( occ.gov). Public domain.
