IndyMac Federal Bank Receives Government Support

Monday, July 14th, 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.

The Federal Reserve Reviews Bank Investment Rules

Saturday, July 5th, 2008

The Federal Reserve is currently reviewing regulations that impose limits on how much investment firms can invest in banks, looking to see if they can make it easier for banks to raise capital.

This Week: The Dollar, The Euro, The Yen and The Subprime Crisis

Friday, July 4th, 2008

The European Central Bank’s president is playing down prospects of further interest rate increases. They raised their benchmark lending rate to 4.25%.
“The monetary policies stance after today’s decision, contributes to achieving our objective of price stability. We are never pre committed. It is a constant feature of our monetary policy. We do what is necessary to deliver price stability in the medium term and be credible and that delivery. Thursday’s 0.25% increase will help bring inflation back below 2%. We saw the little bit of a rebound, but that was chili weakness for the zero after this decision”.
With the US off for the July 4 holiday, he really is damping down prospects of further interest  rate increases. Traders took that as a bad sign, by selling the Euro down to a one week low against the dollar.
Nobody much likes the pound because of the UK subprime crisis. The pound has […]
