Subject: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation: Assessments, Revised Deposit Insurance
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 801(a)(2)(A) of title 5, United States Code, this is our report on a major rule
promulgated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) entitled Assessments, Revised
Deposit Insurance Assessment Rates (RIN: 3064-AF83). We received the rule on October25,
2022. It was published in the Federal Register as a final rule on October 24, 2022. 87 Fed.
Reg. 64314. The effective date is January 1, 2023.
FDIC states that the final rule increases initial base deposit insurance assessment rate schedules by
2 basis points, beginning in the first quarterly assessment period of 2023. FDIC further states that
the increase in assessment rate schedules will increase the likelihood that the reserve ratio will
reach the statutory minimum of 1.35 percent by the statutory deadline of September 30, 2028,
consistent with FDIC's Amended Restoration Plan, and is intended to support growth in the Deposit
Insurance Fund (DIF) in progressing toward FDIC's long-term goal of a 2 percent Designated
Reserve Ratio (DRR).
Enclosed is our assessment of FDIC's compliance with the procedural steps required by section
801(a)(1)(B)(i) through (iv) of title 5 with respect to the rule. If you have any questions about this
report or wish to contact GAO officials responsible for the evaluation work relating to the subject
matter of the rule, please contact Shari Brewster, Assistant General Counsel, at (202) 512-6398.
