Rural Banks in Good Shape, S&L's a Potential Trouble Spot

Clifford Rossi

Rural America/ Rural Development Perspectives, 1991, vol. 07, issue 3

Abstract: News these days about the shape of the Nation's financial institutions is not so good. The insurance fund backing bank deposits recently required replenishment, the cost of the thrift savings and loan (S&L) crisis is still unknown, and even the largest banks in the country have seen their balance sheets deteriorate markedly during recent years. While ailing financial institutions are not confined to big cities, rural financial institutions are generally in better shape than urban ones.
