Advanced Search and Filter


BankProspector advanced search screenshot annotated
Advanced search lets you put a fine point on your searches. Advanced search works as an active filter. One you set up and save that filter the list of banks that meet the criteria you set will be dynamically updated as conditions at the banks evolve.

There’s help text at the bottom of the search criteria

Advanced Search supports most of the commands you might expect [ +, -, >, <, <=, >=]. Dollar amounts can be entered with or without commas or dollar signs. The ‘City’ search uses a broad match. ‘Zip Codes’ require an exact match. States should be entered in a 2 letter format and multiple states should be separated by a comma. Percentages (ratios) are expressed as their decimal equivalent, for example, 8% is .08
Example Searches:
* 1000+ , >1000 are both greater than or equal to 1000
* .08- , <.08 search for percentages of less than 8%
* 1000 - 2000 searches within a certain range

Advanced Bank SegmentationThe more criteria you select the more limited your search results will be. The descriptions in the dropdown have been shortened to maintain an orderly selector. When you do add criteria however the long description populates under the form field.

Make your selection, add your limiting factor (as described in the help text) and click the ‘Add Button’. After you’ve made your selections click ‘Submit Search’ if you are not happy with the number of results returned adjust your criteria and search again.

After you find a suitable number of results click ‘Save Search’. Enter your saved search name and click ‘Save’. Once the page refreshes your saved search will appear in a drop down on the left panel under ‘Saved Searches’, save as many searches as you like. When you select a search from the dropdown you’ll automatically be redirected to the result set for that search.
