BY BEN ROONEY

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Bank of Lincolnwood was shuttered by Illinois regulators Friday, bringing the number of failed banks this year to 37 and costing the Federal Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.'s deposit insurance fund $83 million.

The two offices of Lincolnwood, Ill.-based bank will reopen Saturday as branches of Republic Bank of Chicago. Bank of Lincolnwood customers will retain their deposit insurance coverage, the FDIC said.

As of late last month, Bank of Lincolnwood had total assets of about $214 million and total deposits of $202 million. Republic Bank agreed to purchase about $162 million in assets, leaving $52 million for the FDIC to sell.

Doesn’t matter. The printing press is implied I think.

For those of you not familiar with Chicago, Lincolnwood is a northern suburb of Chicago where Stuart Levine, Tony Rezko’s friend, used to have all-male drug parties.

It's the old Clinton strategy: All bad news happens on Friday, and the later the better.
