On December 8, 2009, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued an Open Government Directive, requiring federal agencies to take specific steps to implement the principles of transparency, participation, and collaboration in their operations.

In order to comply with this directive, the FDIC presents the following information:

FDIC Open Government Plan - Revised May 2021
As a part of the Open Government Directive, each agency in the federal government is responsible for publishing a plan that describes how it will improve transparency and integrate public participation and collaboration into its activities.
