FDIC sells Signature Bank deposits to Flagstar, crypto not included
Only a week after its collapse, Signature Bank’s deposits and loans are set to be sold to Flagstar Bank, a subsidiary of New York Community Bancorp — but crypto-related deposits will not be part of the deal.
The United States Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation announced the agreement on March 19, which will see $38.4 billion worth of non-cryptocurrency-related deposits and $12.9 billion in loans taken over by the Michigan-based bank under a “purchase and assumption agreement.”
