**Changelog**
November 12, 2026: First published, with the data built on this date.

Commercial and industrial loans are loans to businesses for equipment, working capital and the like, usually not secured by real estate.

Call reports give one balance per institution, not by state, and they carry balances, not loans made. The figure shown is the whole institution's book.

Growth appears only where a book grew over the 12 months. Each lender's own page has its full record.

A lender counts here if it holds commercial and industrial loans on its books at the latest filing and has an office in Kentucky. Lenders that merged or stopped filing are left out.

Source and date appear beside each figure. Banks report balances, not loans made. Loans made come only from HMDA and SBA files. We do not audit filings and can make errors joining them. [Report a problem](https://lender.report/report/)

Figures come from public records and show the source and date beside them. Public records can be late, incomplete or wrong. A past loan does not mean a lender will make the same kind of loan today. Confirm anything important with the lender.
