Context

On January 22, 1951, regulators closed Brazeau Bank, headquartered in Brazeau, MO. At closing, the institution held approximately $144K in assets and $148K in deposits. The FDIC record does not name an acquiring institution.

By assets at closing this is the 3275th largest of the 3,526 bank failures in the FDIC record, and the 2nd of 2 in 1951. It falls in the period the record labels Postwar Stability (1945-1979), a period with 161 failures peaking at 16 in 1976.

Three decades of regulated calm — Reg Q ceilings, geographic branching limits, and high industry profits kept failures rare.
