Yes, the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) was successful. In 1933, The United States was engulfed in a "Great Depression" and many people were put out of jobs. The unemployment rate was over 20%. The president Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Banking Act of 1933. This legislation established the FDIC as a temporary government corporation. The Banking Act of 1935 made the FDIC a permanent agency of the government and provided permanent deposit insurance maintained at the $5,000 level.I hope you all found this information helpful.

Was fdic successful?

Yes. The FDIC is successful. FDIC stands for Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The purpose of this is to provide "Deposit Insurance" which guarantees the safety of cash deposited in its member banks, currently up to US $ 250,000 per depositor per bank.

Why would the government want a bank to be successful?

Of course everyone with any brains would want a bank to be successful. If the bank is successful everyone wins. If they fail the taxpayers loose because most of the deposits are insured by the FDIC and the taxpayers will have to pay dearly for that failure.
