Introducing our Failed Bank List of 2009
Announcing our ongoing commitment to keep track of failed banks. Some banks are larger than others, but even the small ones still have an impact on their communities. We will provide the list along with some brief notes about the acquiring bank. One special feature of our list, is a map of failed banks per state. Here is a screenshot of banks that have failed per state.
The List of Failed Banks Has Grown, But the Worst May Be Over
There is a lot of talk in mainstream media about failed banks, so we went directly to the source--the FDIC, to find out the full story. Here, you can see clearly that last year, 26 banks failed in total. As you can see from the chart there was very little activity in the first half of the year, then bank failures steadily increased from July through December.
