BAD BANK

A bad bank (also called a collection bank) is a specially chartered bank that acts as a self-liquidating trust and is chartered by a bank holding company to hold all non-performing assets owned by a federally insured bank. This transfer of bad loans improved the asset quality of the seller. In the current economic climate many countries are looking into the use of the bad bank as a means of recovery.
