What KEY reported on Oct 20, 2026

The quarter

Revenue of $2.0B.

“These increases reflect a reduction in deposit costs as a result of declining interest rates and proactive deposit beta management, the reinvestment of proceeds from maturing low-yielding investment securities and fixed-rate swaps into higher yielding investments, an expanding balance sheet, and a continued strategic shift towards higher-yielding commercial and industrial loans.”
