To protect the depositors, an assump- tion agreement was made with Palmetto State Bank, Hampton, South Carolina. Depositors will continue to be insured by the FDIC, so Palmetto hopes that customers of Allendale will not change their banking relationships due to the switch. Over that weekend, customers were able to access their money by writing checks or by using their ATM/debit cards while the branches were closed, but now it's business as usual—only under a different name. As of the end of the year, Allendale had $54.5 million in total assets and $51 million in deposits. Palmetto not only assumed the de- posits of the failed bank, but also purchased all of the assets. e FDIC has predicted that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) for this will be $17.1 million. Palmetto's acquisition was the least costly option.
