Executive Summary - Second Quarter 2022
The attached report highlights the FDIC’s financial activities and results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.
- During the second quarter of 2022, the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) balance increased to $124.4 billion as of June 30, 2022, up $1.4 billion from the March 31, 2022 balance of $123.0 billion. The quarterly increase was primarily due to assessment revenue of $2.1 billion partially offset by an unrealized loss on U.S. Treasury (UST) securities of $547 million.
- With the increase in the DIF balance, the reserve ratio rose three basis points to 1.26 percent, as insured deposits fell 0.7 percent.
- There were no FDIC-insured financial institution failures during the second quarter of 2022; the last failure occurred on October 23, 2020.
- Through June 30, 2022, overall FDIC Operating Budget expenditures were below the year-to-date budget by about $124.6 million, or 12 percent. This variance was primarily the result of underspending of $110.7 million in Ongoing Operations. This included: $47.7 million in Salaries and Compensation due to unfilled vacancies in budgeted positions; $22.4 million in Travel due to pandemic-related FDIC travel restrictions; $18.7 million in Outside Services-Personnel due to the delay or deferral of planned IT and facilities projects, delays in the award of contracts for resolution readiness and support, and lower-than-budgeted spending for outside counsel litigation support; and $14.4 million in Buildings and Leased Space due to delays in planned construction projects and reduced expenses for facilities-related services during the pandemic.
