NEW YORK (AP) - Regulators on Friday shut Bank of Wyoming, marking the 53rd failure this year of a federally insured bank.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. was appointed receiver of the failed bank, based in Thermopolis, Wyo. It had $70 million in assets and $67 million in deposits as of June 30.
The FDIC says Central Bank & Trust of Lander, Wyo., will assume all deposits and purchase about $55 million in assets. The FDIC will retain the remaining assets to sell later.
