Indymac Seized By Federal Regulators
BackIn what will go down as one of the largest bank collapses in U.S. history, the Pasadena, California based, IndyMac, was shut down by Federal Regulators. With a loss of depositors, who withdrew $1.3 billion dollars in the past 11 days, not to mention an abysmal housing market, the weight was too much bear for IndyMac. A specialist in Alt-A loans, and a bank that helped finance the U.S. housing boom of the 1990's, IndyMac was ultimately ruined by defaults. At one time, the bank reported $32 billion in assets, but in 2008. Recent efforts saw IndyMac cut over half of its work force to raise capital, but it wasn't enough. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation will assume all operations starting Monday, for what's left of IndyMac's customers. http://www.EmploymentCrossing.com
