Highlights:
- The FDIC is modernizing its current business processes and procedures for determining deposit insurance coverage in the event of a failure of one of the largest insured depository institutions.
- The attached claims modernization rule will require the largest institutions to modify their deposit systems so that in the event of failure, the FDIC can provide depositors prompt access to funds and calculate deposit insurance coverage quickly.
- The FDIC solicited comments on this rule on January 14, 2008. The requirements also were addressed in two advance notices of proposed rulemaking issued in 2005 and 2006. Based on its review of the comments, the FDIC is adopting the least-costly approach that would meet its objectives in the event of a large-bank failure.
