“The FDIC proposed a $2 million fine against the company due to violations of the company’s refund anticipation loan program,” said securities lawyer Hamilton Lindley. “The program was considered ‘unsafe and unsound’ by the FDIC in February 2011, when the FDIC ordered Republic Bancorp to stop the program. Our proposed derivative class action seeks to make Republic Bancorp work in the best interests of its shareholders by enforcing better corporate governance.”
