What is
a
Yield and Rate Analysis Report
? Yield and Interest Rate Reports are considered analysis tools and are used by Managers and CFOs to analyze actual and budgeted rates and yields by credit union branch. Some of the main functionality in this type of report is that it is parameter-driven by branch and period and it compares current month metrics with prior year and budget. The rows show interest rates, fees and yields per financial product, including: Loans, Leases, and Securities. The last section (not visible in the screenshot below) includes Demand Deposits with interest expense and interest rate. You find an example of this type of report below.
Purpose of
Yield and Rate Reports Credit Unions use Yield and Rate Reports to enable executives and branch managers to get a single view of key financial metrics for their product offerings. When used as part of good business practices in Investment- and Finance departments, a company can improve its product offerings and profitability, and it can reduce the chances that a branch is giving members terms that are not driving the same results as that of other branches.
