FDIC Friday - April 26, 2013
Posted: Fri Apr 26, 2013 7:26 pmHamilton State Bank, Hoschton, Georgia, Assumes All of the Deposits of Douglas County Bank, Douglasville, Georgia
As of December 31, 2012, Douglas County Bank had approximately $316.5 million in total assets and $314.3 million in total deposits. Hamilton State Bank will pay the FDIC a premium of 0.5 percent to assume all of the deposits of Douglas County Bank. In addition to assuming all of the deposits of the failed bank, Hamilton State Bank agreed to purchase approximately $260.9 million of the failed bank's assets. The FDIC will retain the remaining assets for later disposition.
The FDIC and Hamilton State Bank entered into a loss-share transaction on $159.2 million of Douglas County Bank's assets. Hamilton State Bank will share in the losses on the asset pools covered under the loss-share agreement. The loss-share transaction is projected to maximize returns on the assets covered by keeping them in the private sector. The transaction also is expected to minimize disruptions for loan customers. For more information on loss share, please visit: http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/fai ... index.html.
The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) will be $86.4 million. Compared to other alternatives, Hamilton State Bank's acquisition was the least costly resolution for the FDIC's DIF. Douglas County Bank is the 10th FDIC-insured institution to fail in the nation this year, and the second in Georgia. The last FDIC-insured institution closed in the state was Frontier Bank, LaGrange, on March 8, 2013.
