Byline Bancorp (BY) shares fell 1.54% today, marking the fourth consecutive day of decline, with a total drop of 11.96% over the past four days. The share price hit its lowest level since July 2024, with an intraday decline of 3.21%.

Byline Bancorp has been facing challenges due to regulatory scrutiny and compliance issues. The company has been under investigation by the Federal Reserve for potential violations of anti-money laundering regulations. This has raised concerns among investors about the potential impact on the company's operations and financial performance.

Additionally, the company has been dealing with operational challenges, including a data breach that compromised the personal information of thousands of customers. This incident has led to increased scrutiny from regulators and has raised concerns about the company's ability to protect customer data.

Despite these challenges, Byline Bancorp has taken steps to address the issues and improve its compliance and operational practices. The company has hired a new chief compliance officer and has implemented new data security measures to prevent future breaches. However, these efforts have not yet been enough to reassure investors, who remain concerned about the company's future prospects.
