The better question is "what characteristics do prepaid amounts have in common with brokered deposits?". That is how you handicap the outcome. Other than that, things are up to the arbitrary and capricious whims of government employees.

Its the deposits against the prepaid offering. " if a substantial portion of the Bank's deposits are ruled to be "brokered," and should the Bank's primary federal regulator decide to impose a formal individual minimum capital requirement or similar formal requirement on the Bank notwithstanding that the Bank is well-capitalized, the Bank would be prohibited, absent waiver from the FDIC, from utilizing brokered deposits. In either event, unless the Bank receives relief from its regulator or a waiver from the FDIC, such a result could produce serious adverse consequences for the Bank from a liquidity standpoint and could also have serious adverse effects on the Company's financial condition and results of operations." Handicapping is done by buying at very low P/T-BV. Spin
