The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Chinatown’s primary regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, had previously approved the transaction, and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has issued the necessary waiver. Accordingly, all required regulatory approvals for the acquisition have now been received.

We anticipate the acquisition to close during the first week of July,” said Michael P. Puorro, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hanover Bancorp, Inc.
