“We purchased M&T Bank Corporation (NYSE:MTB), a regionally focused commercial bank with strong local scale in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. Its strategy prioritizes density over national expansion, with selective acquisitions like the successful People’s merger enhancing its deposit base. The bank has actively reduced risk in its commercial real estate portfolio and leverages unique agency licenses to generate fee income. M&T is also well-positioned to benefit from partnerships in private credit. While near-term credit risks remain, especially in commercial real estate, the bank’s consistent operating leverage and above-peer returns support a favorable long-term outlook.”
