Public funds tied up in defunct banks across South Carolina
Nearly 1.5 million dollars of state county and school funds are trapped in defunct banks or banks closed temporarily in South Carolina. The amount, largely held by county treasurers, may take years to resolve with some funds not written off as losses. Governor McLeod urges stricter security for deposits and a law requiring surety bonds or adequate collateral for all banks holding public funds to protect the state against loss through embezzlement insolvency or liquidation.
