Morton Community Bank, Morton, Illinois, Assumes All of the Deposits of Citizens National Bank, Macomb, Illinois
| FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 22, 2009 |
“Citizens National Bank, Macomb, Illinois, was closed today by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. To protect the depositors, the FDIC entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with Morton Community Bank, Morton, Illinois, to assume all of the deposits of Citizens National Bank, excluding those from brokers.
Citizens National Bank will reopen on Saturday, May 23, 2009, as branches of Morton Community Bank. Depositors of Citizens National Bank will automatically become depositors of Morton Community Bank. Deposits will continue to be insured by the FDIC, so there is no need for customers to change their banking relationship to retain their deposit insurance coverage. Customers of both banks should continue to use their existing branches until Morton Community Bank can fully integrate the deposit records of Citizens National Bank.”
