4/4

A $30 billion Mini-TARP for Community Banks - As we already painfully know, giving TARP moneyto specific community banks will not work. The money will not lead to increased lending, but will merelybe a slush fund for political favors. Many banks that need additional capital are too far gone and shouldbe closed on Bank Failure Friday, rather than being propped up by tax payer funds.

The overall network of community banks needs help and that help should be a program designed tofind incentives for private capital to invest in banks that are deemed borderline Bank Failure Fridayvictims. If the FDIC had additional funding they could bolster the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) andsuspend bank assessments for community banks under a total asset threshold.

About 700 community banks already received money through the $700 billion TARP and lending tosmall businesses did not pick up. Money was given too many banks that were overexposed toconstruction and development loans, and odds are the $30 billion Mini-TARP will meet the same fate.There are 91 banks that received TARP that are not making their dividend payments due to lack of

capital.What we need is a Troubled Asset Relief Program to establish markets for toxic assets so that troubledbanks can remove bad loans from their balance sheets. Finding viable community banks that did nottake TARP and are not overexposed to C&D and CRE loans and do not have a funded pipeline lessthan 80% is no easy task.
