Cathay General Bancorp

It primarily provides commercial banking services, deposit-taking and credit to small and medium-sized businesses, property-related borrowers and local communities. Investors should know its earnings generally depend on net interest margin, loan growth and credit quality, and can be sensitive to economic cycles and interest-rate moves. The company’s size and regional focus can offer opportunities for steady deposit funding and relationship banking, but can also concentrate exposure to local market conditions.
