2002 Annual Report

 
II. Performance Results
 

Summary of 2002 Performance Results by Program

 

In accordance with Section 232.8 of the Office of Management and Budget's Circular No. A-11, Part 2, the FDIC is pleased to report that there were no situations in 2002 where performance had an adverse effect on the FDIC's activities or programs. In addition, 2002 performance was considered in the development of the FDIC's 2003 Annual Performance Goals. The Office of Inspector General (OIG) has shared its view of the challenges the Corporation is confronting and has acknowledged the numerous actions under way to address these issues. See Appendix C for a list of these challenges. Management is committed to addressing issues identified by the OIG, as evidenced by the initiatives discussed in the operations section of the report.

Program Area  Performance Results
Insurance
  • Resolved 11 insured institution failures, providing depositors with timely access to insured deposits in each case. For seven of the failures, depositors had uninterrupted and continuous access to insured deposits as the deposits were assumed by an acquiring entity. For the remaining four failures, a deposit payout was conducted where a check in the amount of the insured deposit was mailed to each depositor within required time frames.
  • The House of Representatives voted to approve deposit insurance reform legislation. Although the Senate failed to act on the legislation before adjournment, the Corporation will continue to pursue deposit insurance reform in the 108th Congress.
  • Completed risk assessments for all large insured depository institutions.
  • Improved the accuracy and efficiency of off-site risk identification models.
  • Published economic and banking information and analysis:
