Nineteen U.S. banks have signed up for the government's offer of a cash injection, in addition to the nine that joined the program initially. The injections are a bid to revive the sector, which has suffered since lending has dried up and many loans have gone bad.

The Treasury Department plans to provide funds for 20 to 22 lenders in the current round of the $250 billion bank recapitalization program.

Nine of the largest U.S. banks received the first $125 billion of capital infusions two weeks ago:

  • Bank of America [BAC  Loading...      ()   ]/Merrill Lynch [MER  Loading...      ()   ]  $25 billion
  • Citigroup [C  Loading...      ()   ] $25 billion
  • JPMorgan Chase [JPM  Loading...      ()   ] $25 billion
  • Wells Fargo [WFC  Loading...      ()   ] $25 billion
  • Morgan Stanley [MS  Loading...      ()   ] $10 billion
  • Goldman Sachs Group [GS  Loading...      ()   ] $10 billion
  • Bank of New York Mellon [BK  Loading...      ()   ] $3 billion
  • State Street [STT  Loading...      ()   ] $2 billion

Since Oct. 24, the following banks have said they will take part in the program:

  • PNC Financial Services [PNC  Loading...      ()   ] $7.7 billion
  • Capital One Financial [COF  Loading...      ()   ] $3.55 billion
  • Regions Financial [RF  Loading...      ()   ] $3.5 billion
  • SunTrust Banks [STI  Loading...      ()   ] $3.5 billion
  • BB&T [BBT  Loading...      ()   ] $3.1 billion
  • KeyCorp [KEY  Loading...      ()   ] $2.5 billion
  • Comerica  [CMA  Loading...      ()   ]$2.25 billion
  • Northern Trust [NTRS  Loading...      ()   ] $1.5 billion
  • Huntington Bancshares [HBAN  Loading...      ()   ] $1.4 billion
  • Zions Bancorp [ZION  Loading...      ()   ] $1.4 billion
  • First Horizon National [FHN  Loading...      ()   ] $866 million
  • City National [CYN  Loading...      ()   ] $395 million
  • Valley National Bancorp [VLY  Loading...      ()   ] $330 million
  • UCBH [UCBH  Loading...      ()   ] $298 million
  • Umpqua Holdings [UMPQ  Loading...      ()   ] $214 million
  • Washington Federal [WFSL  Loading...      ()   ] $200 million
  • First Niagara Financial [FNFG  Loading...      ()   ] $186 million
  • HF Financial [HFFC  Loading...      ()   ] $25 million
  • Bank of Commerce [BOCH  Loading...      ()   ] $17 million

Provident Bankshares [PBKS  Loading...      ()   ], the parent of Baltimore-based Provident Bank, also said it has been given preliminary approval but hasn't decided whether to participate.

Fifth Third Bancorp [FITB  Loading...      ()   ] said on Sunday it expected to receive $3.4 billion but had not yet received Treasury approval.

West Bancorp [WCBO  Loading...      ()   ] said on Friday it was seeking shareholder approval to raise between $12 million and $36 million under the Treasury program.

FirstMerit [FMER  Loading...      ()   ] said on Tuesday it was deciding whether to participate. Paul Greig, chief executive, said he expects the Treasury's investment in FirstMerit would be $80 million to $250 million. Sterling Bancshares [SBIB  Loading...      ()   ]also said it was considering participating in the program.
