Wells Fargo: Balancing Profit Gains with Regulatory Risks and Growth ConstraintsWells Fargo continues to be under a USD1.95tn asset cap imposed by the 2018, which results in a limited capacity for the bank to grow its assets. Fargo announced its decision to shrink its mortgage business in its efforts to continue to derisk. In end November 2024, WFC is reportedly in the last stages of a process to pass regulatory tests to lift its asset cap as early as 1H2025 as WFC continues to work on eight consent orders. We believe that even with an eventual lift of the asset cap, Wells Fargo might face limitations in keeping pace with its peers’ growth.
