Winston Score History

The full picture

Fulton Financial Corporation is a regional bank holding company based in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. It operates a network of community banks across five Mid-Atlantic states — Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, and Delaware — serving everyday consumers, small businesses, and commercial clients. Its banking subsidiaries offer checking and savings accounts, mortgages, business loans, and wealth management services.

Fulton makes money primarily by collecting interest on loans and mortgages, and by charging fees for banking services. With roughly $32 billion in total assets, it is a mid-sized regional bank with deep roots in its local communities, which helps it retain customers who prefer a more personal banking relationship over large national banks. The main risk Fulton faces is interest rate sensitivity — when rates shift, the gap between what it earns on loans and what it pays on deposits can shrink, squeezing profitability. Competition from larger banks and fintech lenders also pressures its core lending business.
