Loans and eligibility
Not yet verifiedWe could not read the website listed for this lender on 2 Nov 2026, so we can't list its loan products, sizes or service area yet. That doesn't mean it lacks them. Check www.exchange-bank.com or contact the lender directly.
Questions to ask when you contact them
We have no details from their website yet, so these are the basics to ask any lender. Something missing here does not mean they don't offer it: ask.
- What kinds of loans do you make, and which one fits what I need?
We have no loan details from their website. - Do you lend where I live, or where my business is?
- What are the smallest and the largest loans you make?
- What interest rate and fees should I expect? For a personal, car or home loan, ask for the APR.
- What documents will you need from me, and how long does a decision usually take?
Write down the answers, who you spoke to and the date, and ask for the terms in writing before you sign.

Balances are loans outstanding on the report date, not loans made during the year, and they include loans the bank bought. Shares are of gross loans and leases. The change over the year includes loans gained through mergers or bought from others. A category with no balance does not mean the bank never makes that kind of loan; ask the bank.

| Loans as a share of assets | 49% | Median of the same 72 banks and bank holding companies: 73%. A higher share means more of its balance sheet is lent out. |

How these comparisons were worked out
| Measure | Peer group (this lender left out) | Peers | Where this lender sits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Call Report total assets | other certified banks and bank holding companies in Louisiana | 72 | larger than 24% |
| Loans held then vs now | certified banks and bank holding companies in Louisiana reporting both dates | 72 | rank 59 → 61 of 73 |
| HMDA home loans | certified CDFIs with 3+ originations in 2025, nationwide | 263 | more than 48% |
“Larger than X%” = the share of the peer group with a smaller value. Ranks count from the largest. Peer groups use the lender's home state when it has at least 5 peers, otherwise the whole country. Full definitions: methodology.
For comparison, not an offer and not a rating. Past records show what this lender did, not what you would be offered. Peer groups and sources: methodology. Assets and loans: FFIEC and NCUA Call Reports (see the loan-mix section). Home loans: FFIEC/CFPB HMDA data.
