Nearly five years after falling under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.’s watch, First BanCorp, parent company of FirstBank Puerto Rico, announced Thursday the regulator has terminated the Consent Order under which it had been operating since June 2, 2010.
Less than two weeks after the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. ordered the closing of its banking arm, Doral Financial Corp. announced Wednesday that it has filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.
Popular Inc., which on Friday picked up the lion’s share of Doral Bank’s assets, announced Monday it won its bid to also take over the mortgage servicing rights on three pools of residential mortgage loans serviced for Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac held by the shuttered bank.
