What provides deposit insurance which guarantees the safety of deposits in member banks?
In the United States, all banks are members of the FDIC - Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Each bank pays a certain amount into the FDIC's coffers for insurance of all deposits up to $100,000 by individual citizens. If the bank runs out of money, the FDIC pays back to the citizens the amount of money they had on deposit at the bank out of the money the banks have been paying into the FDIC. Until the Great Recession, the FDIC was 100% financially solvent; during the Recession there were enough banks that went under that FDIC needed a loan from the Treasury Department to cover repaying all deposits. This loan has since been paid back and the FDIC is standing on its own two feet again.

Which is the government agency that covers customer deposits if a bank fails?
In the United States, the government agency that covers customer deposits if a bank fails is the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The FDIC is an independent agency created by the U.S. government to maintain stability and public confidence in the nation's financial system. The FDIC provides deposit insurance, which means that if a FDIC-insured bank fails, the agency guarantees the safety of depositors' funds up to certain limits. As of September 2021, the standard deposit insurance limit is $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank. This coverage applies to various types of deposit accounts, including savings accounts, checking accounts, certificates of deposit (CDs), and money market deposit accounts. It's important to note that not all banks are FDIC-insured. To ensure the safety of your deposits, it is advisable to verify that a bank is FDIC-insured before opening an account. The FDIC logo or the words "Member FDIC" displayed at the bank's premises or on their website indicate FDIC insurance coverage.
Which body guarantees bank deposits in the US?
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC. They ensure up to $250,000 per depositor per institution until the end of 2013. However, recently their reserves have fallen below mandated minimums set by congress because there have been so many bank failures. The FDIC is only required to have about 3.5% of total deposits available to insure losses, because it is highly unlikely that all banks in the country will go broke all at the same time.
