Regulatory Capital Requirements Note [Abstract]

Regulatory Capital Requirements

Note 11.            Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Company and Royal Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies.  Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements.  Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company's assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's and Royal Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.  At June 30, 2011, the Company and Royal Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

In connection with a recent bank regulatory examination, the FDIC concluded, based upon its interpretation of the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (the “Call Report”) instructions and under regulatory accounting principles (“RAP”), that income from Royal Bank's tax lien business should be recognized on a cash basis, not an accrual basis.  Royal Bank's current accrual method is in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Royal Bank disagrees with the FDIC's conclusion and filed the Call Report for September 30, 2010, December 31, 2010, March 31, 2011, and June 30, 2011 in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  The change in the method of revenue recognition for the tax lien business for regulatory accounting purposes affects Royal Bank's and the Company's capital ratios as shown below.  Royal Bank is in discussions with the FDIC to resolve the difference of opinion.

The table below sets forth Royal Bank's capital ratios under RAP based on the FDIC's interpretation of the Call Report instructions:

	As of June 30, 2011
	Actual					For capital adequacy purposes					To be well capitalized under prompt corrective action provision
(Dollars in thousands)	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio
Total capital (to risk-weighted assets)	$	83,679		14.23	%	$	47,040		8.00	%	$	58,800		10.00	%
Tier I capital (to risk-weighted assets)	$	76,178		12.96	%	$	23,520		4.00	%	$	35,280		6.00	%
Tier I Capital (to average assets, leverage)	$	76,178		8.34	%	$	36,515		4.00	%	$	45,644		5.00	%
