While the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is keeping secret its official list of 90 troubled banks, ABC News has obtained other lists prepared by several research groups and financial analysts.

The lists use versions of the so-called "Texas ratio" which compare a bank's assets and reserves to its non-performing loans, based on financial data made public by the FDIC in March.

Analysts say banks with a ratio over 100 per cent would be the most likely to fail, based on what happened to Texas savings and loans during the 1980's.

Bank	City	State	“Texas-ratio”
Colorado Federal Savings Bank	Greenwood Village	CO	244.8
Eastern Savings Bank, FSB	Hunt Valley	MD	222.7
Integrity Bank	Alpharetta	GA	191.6
Ameribank, Inc.	Welch	WV	153.7
First Priority Bank	Bradenton	FL	122.6
First Security National Bank	Norcross	GA	112.1
Magnet Bank	Salt Lake City	UT	110.4
Security Pacific Bank	Los Angeles	CA	102.8
First National Bank of Brookfield	Brookfield	IL	102.1
The State Bank of Lebo	Lebo	KS	100.6
