Bank Dividend Delayed As Title Work Delays Payout

The Bank of Iron County will not pay this month due to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation loan approval tied to paying depositors. It may take about thirty to sixty days to clear mortgage abstracts and assign good title, with possible charges for back taxes reducing available funds. The next dividend may total up to 54 percent, reaching 79 percent with prior payments. If expenses are light, dividends could be higher. Liquidation continues with funds from borrowers used to repay the loan. Any residue after repayment could yield a small further dividend to depositors.
