Office of Inspector General details failure of Arkansas-based Allied Bank

Allied Bank, the Mulberry bank that was closed by the Arkansas State Bank Department in 2016, failed because of governance weakness and deficient credit risk-management practices, the federal Office of Inspector General said Thursday.

The agency released more than 40 pages covering its in-depth review of the bank's failure.
