Capital Purchase Program Extension

The Treasury Department on Friday extended the Nov. 14 deadline for nonpublic and mutually owned financial institutions applying for funding under its Capital Purchase Program.

The agency is trying to figure out how these institutions can participate since they do not issue preferred stock, which the Treasury is taking in return for the capital injections.

The agency also released the documents that participating institutions must file.
