The FBI raided the Puerto Rico headquarters of Doral Bank in search of evidence related to “several ongoing investigations” Tuesday following questions about the lender’s ability to meet regulatory mandates, Bloomberg reports.
The FBI confirmed it collected computers and documents from the San Juan bank’s offices but declined to elaborate on the investigation.
Doral has been under pressure to maintain compliance with capital requirements and reportedly was looking for a buyer for some of its business, Bloomberg wrote.
Doral spokeswoman Miriam Warren said the bank is fully cooperating with the investigation.
“We look forward to sharing more on the focus of the investigation as we learn more,” she said in a statement.
