# CDFI Peer Benchmark Benchmarks a **bank CDFI** against peers using FDIC BankFind call-report data, via the published, audited **cdfi-benchmark** package. Renders results faithfully: where the package returns NaN/None/`N/A`, the AI reports N/A — it never fills a number. ## When to use - "Benchmark First Community Bank against its peers." - "How does this bank CDFI's NIM / ROAA / efficiency ratio compare?" - "Build a peer group for cert 23623 and show the summary table." ## When NOT to use - **Credit unions / CDCUs** — not in FDIC BankFind (they are NCUA-regulated). This package covers FDIC-insured depositories only.

There is no `cdfi_benchmark` alias — `import cdfi_benchmark` will fail. ```python import cdfibenchmark as c ``` ## The scope guardrail (state it up front) **Bank CDFIs only.** Peers are drawn from FDIC BankFind. If the user names a credit union or a loan fund, do not force it through — explain that this tool covers FDIC-insured bank CDFIs and MDIs only, and that credit-union benchmarking is delibera
