The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) has been credited with helping consumer confidence in the banking sector by insuring bank deposits “backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.”[1] Most U.S. citizens do not even consider bank failure when they put their money in the financial services sector—even though just two short generations ago bank runs were commonplace. Part of the reason for this is that, since the creation of the FDIC, no banking customer “has ever lost a penny of insured deposits.”[2] The FDIC has been a powerful force in banking regulation that has served to secure our financial system.
