Vineyard Bank, National Association, Rancho Cucamonga, CA

The FDIC continues its torrid pace this evening, closing bank number 56 of 2009. Vineyard Bank, National Association, Rancho Cucamonga, CA, has fallen.

Zions Bancorporation’s California Bank & Trust unit acquired the deposits of Vineyard Bank, one of four lenders seized yesterday by regulators. The failures will cost the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. a total of $1.09 billion.

California Bank & Trust in San Diego said it assumed $1.5 billion in deposits and $1.4 billion in loans from Rancho Cucamonga, California-based Vineyard, which lost more than $100 million last year as builders defaulted on construction loans. Vineyard was closed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the FDIC was named receiver, the FDIC said in a statement.
