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,
Amendments to Incorporate Troubled Debt Restructuring Accounting Standards Update

Register as a final rule on October 24, 2022. 87 Fed. Reg. 64348. The effective date is
January 1, 2023.
According to FDIC, the final rule incorporates updated accounting standards in the risk-based
deposit insurance assessment system applicable to all large insured depository institutions
(IDIs), including highly complex IDIs. FDIC stated it calculates deposit insurance assessment
rates for large and highly complex IDIs based on supervisory ratings and financial measures,
including the underperforming assets ratio and the higher-risk assets ratio, both of which are

TDRs, in the underperforming assets ratio and higher-risk assets ratio for purposes of deposit
insurance assessments.
