The FDIC has proposed new rules to accelerate bank merger reviews, including a five-day approval track for small transactions.

Lineage Bank has rebranded as Harpeth Bank & Trust following a regulatory consent order and a majority acquisition by Recap Financial Ventures.

The FDIC has increased the cap on reciprocal deposits for qualifying banks up to $30 billion to help them attract more business cash.
