Who is FDIC and what role did it have during The Great Depression?
FDIC stand for Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The purpose of the FDIC is to guarantee peoples deposits in a bank up to $250,000. Or in other words, if the bank your account is at goes out of business, and you have $1,000 in it. The FDIC will pay you the $1,000 and so on up to a max payout of $250,000. The FDIC was formed June 16, 1933 in the midst of The Great Depression. During this time, bank runs were a common occurrence, where people would mob the banks looking to withdraw all of the money in their accounts. Unfortunately, banks only carried a fraction of all the accounts value in reserve, so essentially it became a matter of first come first serve and since there was no such thing as deposit insurance at the time, once the banks reserves ran out, that $1,000 you used to have is now gone! Not too good when unemployment is 25% and the Stock Market had decreased in value by 75%! Therefore, the FDIC would become one of numerous plans to come out of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, that would begin to stabilize the American economy after the worst economic downturn in American history.

Now it is up to $250,000

Which banks are offering the best high interest savings accounts at this time?
According to Bankrate.com the best savings account interest rates are currently at Capitol One Direct, Discover Bank and Ally.com. The best rates are now at internet based banks, but so long as they're FDIC insured that shouldn't worry you too much.
What is core deposit ratio?
The core deposit ratio most likely relates to a metric used when analyzing and examining banks. It is core deposits / total deposits. Core deposits, as defined by the FDIC, are "the sum of demand deposits, all NOW and ATS accounts, MMDAs, other savings deposits and time deposits under $250,000, minus all brokered deposits under $250,000."
