Bruce Van Saun: People like to call last year’s bank failures regional bank failures.

A new management team at New York Community Bank is working to reassure investors after the struggling lender announced a $1 billion cash infusion led by the former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. On Thursday, the bank’s beaten-down shares jumped after executives gave investors new information about the state of the company and details about its rescue plan announced the day before. They also announced a cut to the dividend, the second this year, to just one cent per share. The bank’s share price rose more than 10 percent at the start of trading on Thursday, before settling to a 7 percent gain. The bank’s stock spiraled and its bonds were downgraded by credit-rating agencies.
