By admin | July 14, 2008

IndyMac will cover 50% of uninsured deposits as IndyMac Federal Bank.

The government is stepping in to support IndyMac. Having just changed its name from IndyMac Bancorp after it was seized Friday. The FDIC has assumed control saying it will cover 50% of uninsured deposits and fully insure all up to $100,000, which is normal.

John Bovenzi, the FDIC COO says there’s probably no bank in the country that has access to greater capital and liquidity than Indymac Federal Bank. He also states the FDIC expects to sell it in the next 90 days.

Because Charles Schumer has loose lips, IndyMac Bancorp became the second biggest federally insured financial company to be taken over by regulators.
