Washington Post (06/18/08) P. D3
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. has given the green light to CapitalSource to purchase 22 bank branches and deposits totaling more than $5 billion from Fremont General, a California-based subprime lender that ceased underwriting in 2007 due to rising foreclosures and related losses. The deal will close in the third quarter.
