Philadelphia-based Republic First Bank officially collapses and seized by regulators
Philadelphia-based Republic First Bank (doing business as Republic Bank) was closed today by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. To protect depositors, the FDIC entered into an agreement with Fulton Bank, National Association of Lancaster, Pennsylvania to assume substantially all of the deposits and purchase substantially all of the assets of Republic Bank.
*This bank should not be confused with First Republic Bank, a San Francisco-based bank that collapsed last year and was acquired by JP Morgan.
