I'm not entirely clear on this one. Could it be that they only need to be above 50 percent? That seems low, though.

I practiced a similar question where the bank had to meet or exceed the state's loan-to-deposit ratio. I feel like it has to be at least 78 percent.

I remember something about the Reigle-Neal Act, but I'm not completely sure if it requires matching the state's ratio or just being above a certain percentage.

I think the loan-to-deposit ratio for Williams Bank needs to be at least equal to Nebraska's ratio, so maybe it's A?

Wait, I'm not sure. Is the 78 percent the overall state ratio or the minimum the bank needs? I better double-check the details.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. Does the question mean the bank's overall ratio or just the ratio for the Nebraska branches?

This question seems straightforward, just need to match the bank's loan-to-deposit ratio to the required ratio for Nebraska.

This is a no-brainer! A) At least 78 percent. Unless, of course, the bank wants to be the next Lehman Brothers. Just kidding, but seriously, let's not play fast and loose with the regulations, shall we?

Hmm, I'm going with D) At least 25 percent. It's a national bank, so why should it be held to the same standards as a local bank?

Definitely C) At least 39 percent. Who cares about matching the host state's ratio? The bank should be able to set its own targets.

The correct answer is A) At least 78 percent. This is because the Reigle-Neal Act requires banks to have a loan-to-deposit ratio that matches the host state's ratio, which in this case is 78 percent.
