Deposit Insurance

Congressionally Required Studies

The Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Conforming Amendments Act of 2005 requires the FDIC to conduct studies of three issues: (1) further potential changes to the deposit insurance system, (2) the appropriate deposit base in designating the reserve ratio, and (3) the Corporation's contingent loss reserving methodology and accounting for losses. The 2005 act requires the Comptroller General to conduct studies of (1) federal bank regulators' administration of the prompt corrective action program and recent changes to the FDIC deposit insurance system, and (2) the organizational structure of the FDIC.
