Along with 5 main city branches, Midwest bank is widespread in Chicago containing 26 other branch offices. It was running under the only choice of Broadway bank situation that required summing up a certain capital to get help from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, a rare but only option that Midwest Bank had left. In try to get out from the situation, Midwest bank already invested in various properties around the country including Chicago, but only resulted an additional loan of $250, 000 to $1 million worth money.
