Good call! But it gave First Heritage Bank NA a rating of 3 stars and CAEL rating 3, the same rating for Bank of America (NA, Calif). Both banks were taken over by the FDIC on Friday. I looked at bankrate.com over the weekend. I don't know if they scrambled to adjust their rating of 1st National B of N; but if they did, they neglected to adjust their rating of First Heritage. ------ Misc.invest.financial-plan is a moderated newsgroup where Moderators strive to keep the conversations on-topic for financial planning.

The best answer would be to hedge your risk by putting your money in FDIC insured institutions and never more than $100,000 in the same bank. ------ Misc.invest.financial-plan is a moderated newsgroup where Moderators strive to keep the conversations on-topic for financial planning.

| We have a MMA through GMAC. The continuing banking woes lead me to ask, 'is GMAC a strong bank to continue doing business with?' I realize regular accounts of federally insured up to 100K, but I certainly want to avoid drama is possible. How can consumers trust the stength of their bank after this mess has shown that banks were keeping assets and liabilities off of the books? This certainly seems like it has been major mess and it still hasn't fully played out.
