Flagstar Bank lays off 700, with 1,200 more to depart after asset sale to Mr. Cooper
Briefly

New York Community Bancorp has rebranded to Flagstar Bank, announcing significant layoffs of 700 employees and the transition of 1,200 to Mr. Cooper Group as part of strategic changes.
Chairman Joseph Otting emphasized that the layoffs are necessary for a profitable future and mention measures for improved operational efficiency and risk management as key priorities.
The transition comes after NYCB's merger with Flagstar in December 2022 and the acquisition of Signature Bank's assets in March 2023, following a confidence crisis.
As NYCB's stock trades under the new ticker symbol FLG, the company anticipates completing its deal with Mr. Cooper Group, which includes a $1.4 billion cash payment.
