Bank of Wyoming was
seized by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. on Friday, bringing the
total number of failed banks in 2009 to 53.
According to the FDIC, Central Bank & Trust will assume Bank of Wyoming's $67 million in deposits and
purchase $55 million of the failed bank's $70 million in assets. The bank
had just one branch and was the first
bank in Wyoming to fail this year. Illinois has the most bank failures so far, having six failures last weekend (see list of failed banks below).
The FDIC has been preparing for an increase in bank failures. There are 305 banks reportedly on the FDIC's problem list. The media has identified many of the banks that could go under. For more see FDIC prepares for increase in bank failures or Media 'identifies' banks on the FDIC's hit list. - Maria Woehr
