The FDIC is ready to start insuring new charters.
In an interview last month, FDIC Chairman Sheila Bair conceded that the agency had let too many new banks open with business plans dependent on commercial real estate lending, or brokered deposits.
Blair added, “We are going to be looking for banks that are committed to developing a core deposit base, and a reasonably well diversified business plan, good management and good capital.”
