FDIC Podcast
Minority banks play a critical role in serving communities that have historically lacked access to credit and capital. In this episode, we meet two bankers—one from a small minority bank and the other from a large global financial institution. Together, they discuss the power of their partnership to make certain the banking system works for everyone.
Community banks have long gained a reputation for being successful based on their deep roots in the communities they serve. But in an age of digital banking and online payment systems, what does success even look like for community banks in 2024 and beyond?
Nobody wants to think about failure but in the banking world, planning for an orderly failure of a large bank can be crucial in preventing taxpayer-funded bailouts or widespread disruptions to the financial system. In this episode, Ryan Tetrick, the FDIC’s Deputy Director of Resolution Readiness, discusses “living wills,” a popular term to describe a plan for when a large bank fails.
Following two large bank failures earlier this year, the FDIC began to examine possible options for reforming its deposit insurance framework. In this episode, we examine three options for deposit insurance reform with FDIC senior economists Jonathan Pogach and Rosalind Bennett.
