Bank Acquisitions, Resolutions, and Receiverships

Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has a three-fold mission to (1) insure deposits, (2) examine and supervise state-chartered financial institutions, and (3) manage receiverships. Following the closure of an  Institutions by their chartering authority – the state regulator, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the FDIC responds to protect insured depositors, and manage the disposition of bank assets. The FDIC has several options for resolving institution failures, but the one commonly used is to sell deposits and loans of the failed institution to another banking institution. Customers of the failed institution automatically become customers of the assuming institution.
