Highlights:
- The final rule imposes a special assessment on each insured depository institution's assets minus its Tier 1 capital as reported in its report of condition as of June 30, 2009 and caps the special assessment at 10 basis points times the institution's assessment base for the second quarter 2009 risk-based assessment.
- The special assessment will be collected on September 30, 2009.
- An additional special assessment of up to 5 basis points later in 2009 is probable, but the amount is uncertain.
- The FDIC Board may vote to impose such an additional special assessment if the FDIC estimates that the Deposit Insurance Fund reserve ratio will fall to a level that the Board believes would adversely affect public confidence or to a level that will be close to or below zero.
