OCC Terminates Consent Order
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FSGBank, N.A. (“FSGBank” or the “Bank”) today reported that the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) provided written notification of the termination of the Consent Order with FSGBank, the wholly-owned subsidiary bank of First Security Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: FSGI) (“First Security”).
“Since 2012, our Board and management team’s primary goal was to effect the transformation of FSGBank into a premier community bank in East Tennessee,” said Larry Mauldin, Chairman of the Board of Directors of First Security and FSGBank. “Accomplishing this goal required three distinct tasks: raising capital, resolving the asset quality problems, and satisfying the Bank’s Consent Order. Today’s announcement establishes management’s successful execution of all three tasks.”
With the termination of the Consent Order, FSGBank is now considered “well-capitalized” under the FDIC’s prompt corrective action provisions. This designation provides FSGBank with opportunities for enhanced operational efficiencies, including within its liquidity management, mortgage operations and SBA lending operations.
“We have appreciated working with the OCC to resolve the issues identified in the Consent Order,” said Michael Kramer, First Security and FSGBank’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “The lifting of the Consent Order removes significant operational and financial constraints while enhancing our ability to execute our strategic plan. We can now direct more of our time and energy toward returning to core profitability and building long-term shareholder value.”
