2.28 FDIC Modernization in Oracle Banking Retail Accounts

This topic describes the processing of FDIC Modernization in Oracle Banking Retail Accounts.

The FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) protects the depositors of insured depository institutions (IDIs) against the loss of their deposits due to an IDI failure (up to the applicable insurance limit). The FDIC pays deposit insurance upon the failure of an IDI. In paying deposit insurance, the FDIC insures the balance of each depositor's accounts, dollar-for-dollar, including principal and any accrued interest, up to the applicable insurance limit. The basic amount of FDIC deposit insurance coverage provided to depositors of an IDI is referred to as the Standard Maximum Deposit Insurance Amount (“SMDIA”). At present, the SMDIA is $250,000.

Following the failure of an IDI, the FDIC as receiver will liquidate the institution’s assets for the benefit of the institution’s creditors. Through the FDIC’s payment of deposit insurance, the depositors will recover their insured funds (i.e., funds up to the insurance limit) in full.

An identifier at the bank level is introduced to determine if the bank is marked for insolvency proceedings. Also, the hold reason can be selected and set at bank level for applying the provisional holds.

A new configuration screen is available to maintain the balance threshold and hold percentages across business products basis which the holds are calculated and applied as part of the insovency batch processing.
