 yield-curve, changes in historical relationships between indices (such as SOFR and Prime), and balance sheet growth or contraction. Our asset-liability committee seeks to manage interest rate risk under a variety of rate environments by structuring our on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet positions, which includes interest rate swap derivatives as discussed in Note 19 of our consolidated financial statements found in in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. We seek to monitor and manage interest rate risk within approved policy guidelines and limits. Asset and liability modeling and tracking is performed and presented to the asset-liability committee and the Board of Directors no less than quarterly. Such presentations discuss our current and historical interest rate risk posture, shifts in the balance sheet composition, and the impact of interest rate movements on earnings and equity. Our current balance sheet is a moderately asset sensitive profile, our variable rate assets reprice faster than our longer duration, low beta deposit base. The market events of failed liquidity management at other banks in 2023 have been discussed and reviewed by the asset-liability committee. The committee concluded that we possess a strong liquidity profile and no new liquidity risks were identified. Prudently, we added new measures to assess liquidity risk and enhanced our internal reports to segment deposits by insured, uninsured, collateralized deposits, and we monitor the bank’s funding sources and uses on a regular basis.

​

We also have a risk committee, chaired by our Chief Risk Officer, which reports no less than quarterly to senior management as well as our Board of Directors regarding compliance with risk tolerance limits, key risk factor changes, both internally and externally, due to portfolio changes as well as market conditions. Our enterprise risk management framework is governed by this committee, with input being provided by line of business managers, senior management and the Board.

​

We use simulation analysis to quantify the impact of various rate scenarios on our net interest income. Specific cash flows, repricing characteristics, and embedded options of the assets and liabilities held by us are incorporated into the simulation model. Earnings at risk are calculated by comparing the net interest income of a stable interest rate environment to the net interest income of a different interest rate environment in order to determine the percentage change. As of March 31, 2025, our net interest income profile remained sensitive to earnings gains (in both dollars and percentage) should market interest rates rise. Comparatively, we have a slightly more sensitive profile relative to December 31, 2024, should interest rates rise. This
