 22  Risk Management  In 2008, Dime created the position of CHIEF RISK OFFICER, encompassing the fields of : Enterprise Risk, Credit Administration, Compliance, Audit, and Cybersecurity Risk.Credit: Concentration in low-risk NYC multifamily market.Interest Rate: Nature of loans is short-term (5- and 7-year).Liquidity: Stable sources of available liquidity. 
 

 23  Credit Risk Management  Dime has a long, successful history of managing its highly concentrated “CRE” portfolio, mainly because multifamily loans are residential housing loans.At Dime, “commercial real estate” is a euphemism for multifamily residential housing.Dime has historically been one of the primary lenders in the small (10 – 75 unit, rent-regulated) multifamily housing market in New York.The New York City multifamily housing market is unique in the nation due mainly to rent regulation.NYC rent regulations provide a level of stability in the marketplace, especially to conservative lenders such as Dime (with loans reliant almost solely upon occupancy for debt service).From 2009 to the most recent quarter-end, the average debt service ratio on newly originated “commercial real estate ” loans was 2.06x, and the average loan-to-value ratio was 58%.Dime’s “Texas ratio” (a popular measure of a bank’s ability to absorb credit losses) was 0.8% as of the most recent quarter-end, one of the lowest nationally.
