List of failed banks: 2009-2024

For the first time since April, a federally-insured bank has been shut down by federal authorities.
On Oct. 18, the First National Bank of Lindsay, based in south central Oklahoma, became the second bank insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) to fail in 2024, this time over false and deceptive bank records that suggest fraud.
Six months earlier, Pennsylvania state regulators forcibly shut down Republic First Bank in Philadelphia (doing business as Republic Bank) stemming from a drop in deposits and a languishing mortgage lending business. As a result, Fulton Bank of Lancaster, Penn., assumed nearly all deposits and assets of Republic Bank.
As few and far between as they are, bank failures can result from a myriad of reasons, such as mismanagement, economic forces and criminal activity. But whatever the cause, they can have a crippling effect on customers and communities.
There were five bank failures in 2023, a year with some of the largest bank failures in U.S. history. They included Silicon Valley Bank, which failed on March 10, followed two days later by Signature Bank, ending an unusual streak of more than 800 days without a bank failure. Those were followed by First Republic Bank on May 1, then Heartland Tri-State Bank on July 28. Later in November 2023, Citizens Bank failed.
The following tables list the number of U.S. banks that have failed since 2009.

Generally, a failure occurs when a bank becomes insolvent, meaning it lacks the funds to cover all of its customers’ deposits and the money it owes to others, according to the FDIC.
Bank failures aren’t uncommon; a few typically happen each year. So it’s rare for there to be years like 2022, 2021, 2018, 2006 or 2005, when there were no banks closed.
Before March 2023, only three banks had failed since the coronavirus pandemic started. And all three (The First State Bank, First City Bank of Florida and Almena State Bank) experienced previous financial problems, according to the FDIC. (There was one bank failure in 2020 before the pandemic started.)
Bank failures happen from time to time, which is why it’s important to have your money – including your savings accounts, certificates of deposit, checking and money market accounts – at an FDIC-insured bank and make sure your balances are within FDIC insurance limits and guidelines. No depositor has lost a penny of FDIC-insured funds since 1933.
As soon as a bank fails, the FDIC estimates how much that bank failure will cost the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF). Quarterly assessments on FDIC-insured banks fund most of the DIF, according to the FDIC.
