Federal Reserve examiners failed to rein in practices that led to losses from excessive real estate lending at two banks in California and Florida that later closed, the central bank’s inspector general said.

In overseeing County Bank in Merced, California, the San Francisco Fed should have taken a “more aggressive supervisory” approach.
