There are fears of a new wave of bank failures triggered by commercial real estate loans<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Capmark Financial Group Inc.\u2019s possible collapse may signal a new wave of real estate losses for banks — this one tied to business property — that could push the year\u2019s tally of failures past 100.<\/p>\n

Capmark, ranked among the largest U.S. commercial real estate lenders by Moody\u2019s Investors Service, posted a $1.6 billion quarterly loss on Sept. 2 and said it might go bankrupt.
…<\/b>
Assets originated by Capmark that are no longer collecting interest more than doubled to 7.6 percent of total assets as of June 30 from the end of 2008, after accounting for reserves, the company said. Capmark posted losses in North America, Asia and European units during the quarter and raised the provision for bad loans to $345.8 million from $10.4 million.
…<\/b>
The company struck a deal with Warren Buffett\u2019s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. and Leucadia National Corp. to sell its loan servicing and mortgage units for as much as $490 million.<\/p>\n

Capmark today had its debt rating cut by Moody\u2019s to C because the asset sale and declining value of its remaining units increase the odds that creditors won\u2019t get paid.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, to make us all feel better about the long weekend, three banks were closed today: one tiny one<\/a>:<\/p>\n

As of June 30, 2009, First Bank of Kansas City had total assets of $16 million and total deposits of approximately $15 million.
…<\/b>
The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) will be $6 million. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

… a larger one<\/a>:<\/p>\n

As of August 3, 2009, InBank had total assets of $212 million and total deposits of approximately $199 million.
…<\/b>
The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) will be $66 million.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

… and a larger one still<\/a>:<\/p>\n

As of August 28, 2009, Vantus Bank had total assets of $458 million and total deposits of approximately $368 million.
…<\/b>
The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) will be $168 million.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Update<\/b>: Another one<\/a> just trickled in:<\/p>\n

Platinum Community Bank, as of August 29, 2009, had total assets of $345.6 million and total deposits of $305.0 million.
…<\/b>
Platinum Community Bank is the 88th FDIC-insured institution to fail this year and the 15th in Illinois. The last bank to be closed in the state was Inbank, Oak Forest, earlier today. The FDIC estimates the cost of the failure to its Deposit Insurance Fund to be approximately $114.3 million.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Update<\/b>: Holy smokes, long weekend and the FDIC’s working overtime<\/a>!<\/p>\n

As of July 24, 2009, First State Bank had total assets of $105 million and total deposits of approximately $95 million.
…<\/b>
The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) will be $47 million.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Even better, the recent slide in the preferred share market took a break today, with PerpetualDiscounts up 7bp and FixedResets gaining 5bp … little movement on little volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
