ONB's strong performance in expanding its fee-based businesses (wealth, mortgage, and capital markets) and well-controlled expenses, along with increasing organic noninterest income, are supported by the demographic shift of the aging U.S. population, which is likely to further boost demand for wealth management and trust services, generating higher recurring revenue and improving earnings stability.
