EconomySix US banks have failed in 2026, but the numbers look nothing like 2023
Six US banks have failed so far in 2026, one more than in 2023, but their combined assets were about $1.43 billion versus roughly $552.54 billion for the banks that failed in 2023. The FDIC also reported 47 problem banks as of June 30, down from 60 at the end of 2025, suggesting the failure count alone gives a misleading picture of banking stress.
