About Commerce Bancshares, Inc.
About Commerce Bancshares, Inc.
Commerce Bancshares reported $32.9 billion in consolidated assets, $17.8 billion in loans, and $25.6 billion in deposits at December 31, 2025, operating 140 branch facilities primarily in Missouri, Kansas, and central Illinois. Net interest income represented 63% of total 2025 revenue. Commercial, Retail Banking, and Wealth segments contributed 48%, 28%, and 24% of total segment pre-tax income respectively. The holding company is primarily regulated by the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act; Commerce Bank is subject to the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City and the Missouri Division of Finance.
Commerce Bank generates revenue through net interest income on its $17.8 billion loan portfolio and fee-based income across three segments. Commercial provides corporate lending, merchant and commercial bank card products, payment solutions, leasing, and institutional brokerage services. Retail Banking covers the branch network, consumer installment lending, personal mortgage banking, and card activities. Wealth serves personal and institutional clients with trust, estate planning, and discretionary investment management. The bank held approximately 10% of the deposit market share in Kansas City and approximately 7% in St. Louis, its two largest markets, as of the 2025 10-K. On January 1, 2026, Commerce completed the acquisition of FineMark Holdings in an all-stock transaction—13 offices in Florida, Arizona, and South Carolina; $2.7 billion in loans; $8.7 billion in assets under administration—extending the Wealth segment into southeastern U.S. markets.
Show full overview
The 10-K explicitly contrasts Commerce Bancshares' geographic profile with more geographically diversified peers: the company provides financial services primarily throughout Missouri, Kansas, central Illinois, Oklahoma, and Colorado, with growing presences in Texas, Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Florida, and Tennessee. A prolonged economic downturn in those core Midwest states could materially affect financial condition. The company carried a net unrealized loss of $646.8 million in its available-for-sale debt securities at December 31, 2025—a residual from the 2022–2023 rate-hike cycle—and the Federal Reserve implemented three rate cuts during 2025, with further policy trajectory uncertain.
