The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) announced the failure of two more US banks (#10 and #11 for the year).
Nebraska -based Sherman County Bank was closed by regulators Friday, marking the 10th bank failure of the year. Sherman County Bank had roughly $129.8 million in assets as of Feb. 12, and $85.1 million in deposits.
