Bump: $800+ million loses. The rest of the story.
The FDIC estimates that the cost to the deposit insurance fund from the failure of the six Security banks will be $807 million. For Waterford Village Bank, the cost to the fund is set at $5.6 million.
As the economy has soured -- with unemployment rising, home prices tumbling and loan defaults soaring -- bank failures have cascaded and sapped billions out of the deposit insurance fund. It now stands at its lowest level since 1993, $13 billion as of the first quarter.
