This is an unofficial list of Problem Banks compiled only from public sources.

Here is the unofficial problem bank list for April 18, 2014.

Changes and comments from surferdude808:

An expected update from the OCC on its recent enforcement action activity contributed to a noticeable reduction in the Unofficial Problem Bank List this week. After nine removals, the list stands at 521 institutions with assets of $168.9 billion. A year ago, the list held 781 institutions with assets of $288.5 billion.

Finding their way off the list through merger were National Bank of Earlville, Earlville, IL ($57 million) and Liberty Savings Bank, F.S.B., Pottsville, PA ($23 million). Actions were terminated against Eastern Savings Bank, FSB, Hunt Valley, MD ($425 million); Phoenixville Federal Bank and Trust, Phoenixville, PA ($388 million); First Federal Savings Bank, Ottawa, IL ($380 million); Southwestern National Bank, Houston, TX ($348 million); Columbia Community Bank, Hillsboro, OR ($335 million Ticker: CLBC); Pacific Global Bank, Chicago, IL ($155 million); The First National Bank of Hartford, Hartford, AL ($120 million); and Central Federal Savings and Loan Association of Chicago, Chicago, IL ($95 million).

Next Friday we anticipate an update from the FDIC on its recent enforcement action activity.
