Charter Bank

January 23, 2010

Charter Bank of Santa Fe, New Mexico has failed according to this FDIC Press Release:

Charter Bank, Santa Fe, New Mexico, was closed today by the Office of Thrift Supervision, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. To protect the depositors, the FDIC entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with Charter Bank, Albuquerque, New Mexico, a newly-chartered federal savings bank and a subsidiary of Beal Financial Corporation, Plano, Texas, to assume all of the deposits of Charter Bank.

The eight branches of Charter Bank will reopen on Monday as branches of Charter Bank. Depositors of Charter Bank will automatically become depositors of Charter Bank. Deposits will continue to be insured by the FDIC, so there is no need for customers to change their banking relationship to retain their deposit insurance coverage.
