Before you submit a FOIA request, please look through the materials already available on our web site, such as our Buying From, Selling To FDIC page to see information about the sale of assets from failed financial institutions. If you are looking for information about open operating financial institutions, such as whether they are insured, or what financial information they have recently submitted, try looking at the Institution Directory and Reports of Condition & Income and Thrift Financial Report. You can also see a list of the broad variety of documents already publicly available from the FDIC Public Information Center website.

If after checking all these you are unable to find the information you seek, you can use the form below to submit a FOIA request to the FDIC. If at all possible, please be sure to fill in the blocks for financial institution name and location because most FDIC files are organized by the name of the regulated financial institution.

Also, be sure to look at our fee schedule if you have any questions about the costs associated with your request. Our regulation requires that you state at the time you make your request the maximum amount you are willing to pay.
