The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is an American government insurer that guarantees deposit accounts in participating banks and thrifts in an amount up to $250,000. This coverage guarantees that depositors will not lose their savings up to the insured amount should the bank fail. While the banks pay a premium to the FDIC for this insurance, it is to their benefit as many individuals, organizations and businesses will not deposit funds with an institution that is not FDIC insured.
