From Pinnacle Financial CEO on Q4 earnings, real estate loans · · CNBC Television
“We have really, I think for regional banks, we're pretty well in line. Regulators use a guideline of 100% of risk-based capital for construction credit, 300% of risk-based capital for total commercial real estate. We're well underneath all of those guidelines.”
On , Richard Callicutt, Chairman for the Carolinas & Virginia and Director at PINNACLE FINL PARTNERS INC, spoke about commercial real estate during Pinnacle Financial CEO on Q4 earnings, real estate loans on CNBC Television.
In a September 2024 CNBC appearance, Pinnacle Financial Partners CEO Terry Turner discussed the company's incentive compensation structure, stating that 100% of salary-based associates are included in the incentive plan and that payouts are tied to hitting revenue and EPS targets. Turner noted that in 2023, a difficult year for banks, the company reduced incentives by 38%, and that assuming targets are met in the following year, the incentive expense would need to increase from 62% to 100%. He said the company believes it will grow EPS. Regarding commercial real estate exposure, Turner said the bank is "well underneath" regulatory guidelines of 100% of risk-based capital for construction credit and 300% for total commercial real estate.

Turner stated that the bank's internal scenario is for a soft landing rather than a serious recession.
