Taken together, the estimated loss for the Deposit Insurance Fund for the three failed Puerto Rican banks is a whopping $5.3 billion (add another $2.1 billion for the night’s other 4 failures).
That’s the largest hit to the Deposit Insurance Fund since IndyMac failed nearly two years ago, costing the DIF $10.7 billion.
Though its “net worth” stood at
-$20.9 billion as of 12/31/09, FDIC reported that the DIF had $66 billion of cash on hand. So Sheila won’t be asking Treasury for funds any time soon. Failures have been, and will continue to be, paid for out of assessments on banks.
By assets, WesternBank and R-G Premier Bank rank #2 and #8 on CR’s
unofficial problem bank list.
It’s also worth noting that the pace of bank failures has picked up significantly. This week there were 7, last week there were 7, the week before there were 8. Year-to-date, FDIC has closed twice as many banks in 2009 (64) as 2008 (32).
