Many companies in the Savings and Loans sector have been raising funds to buy other distressed or failing banks. With the FDIC seizing and auctioning off the assets of around 140 banks so far this year, the sector has an unusually large amount of available and attractively priced assets up for grabs. While many mergers and acquisitions have taken place, the FDIC has begun to cancel or delay transactions most recently due to concerns about the financial feasibility of some deals. As an example, Northwest Bancshares Inc.'s acquisition of Nextier has been terminated as a result of a lack of approval by the FDIC. This potential for failure has many companies within the sector thinking twice before they go down the expensive and time consuming road that leads to consolidation.

The sector has some cause for concern, however, due to a recent court case that found a bank guilty of misrepresenting loan values to its shareholders during the housing crisis. Jurors decided that the company did not make shareholders adequately aware of the risks they were taking and thus have to pay a certain percentage of their stock price back to investors. The bank says the loss was not their fault and is seeking a dismissal of the verdict based on the losses simply being due to the collapse of the housing market. The Savings and Loans sector could be in for some costly litigation if more investors choose to file class-action lawsuits.
