Regions Financial Corp RF Stock Quote

After the disastrous acquisition of AmSouth before the global financial crisis, Regions Financial has stabilized its core operations and turned into a solid regional bank. The bank has shied away from dramatic acquisitions since and has improved its risk management and underwriting capabilities, becoming a safer bank in the process. Regions also boasts one of the more advantaged deposit bases under our coverage, and the bank's focus on improving operational efficiency and buliding out fee generating businesses has paid dividends, as the bank has managed to keep its expense growth to a minimal level for years now while also growing fees.
