WASHINGTON – The Board of Directors of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) today approved a 2022 Operating Budget of $2.262 billion.

The budget also maintains robust examination staffing to address any remaining pandemic-related economic uncertainties that could affect the health of financial institutions.

The FDIC’s 2022 Operating Budget includes $2.140 billion for ongoing operations, $75 million for receivership funding, and $47.0 million for the Office of the Inspector General (OIG).
