All of 1st Regents' estimated $49.1 million in deposits and virtually all of its $50.2 million in assets will be assumed by ""First Minnesota Bank in Minnetonka"":https://www.firstmnbank.com/, the agency said in a release. First Minnesota will pay the FDIC a premium of 2 percent to assume the deposits.
