Another US bank has gone bankrupt.

Heartland Tri-State Bank in Kansas, USA, was forced to suspend operations on July 28 after becoming insolvent.

The Kansas State Bank Commissioner's office closed Heartland Tri-State Bank and designated the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to take over the bank. The FDIC said the deal would cost the Deposit Insurance Fund $54.2 million, but it was the least costly solution.

To protect Heartland's customers, the FDIC agreed to take over all of the bank's deposits and transfer them to Dream First Bank, also in Kansas.

This means that the four Heartland Tri-State branches will reopen as normal under the Dream First name on July 31st, and customer accounts will automatically be transferred to the new bank.

The FDIC stated that Heartland Tri-State Bank had total assets of approximately $139 million and total deposits of $130 million as of March 31, 2023. Dream First Bank also agreed to purchase “essentially all” of Heartland Tri-State’s failing assets.

Lenders will also be largely unaffected, because the FDIC and Dream First Bank are signing an agreement to share the losses, according to the FDIC.
