Each depositor insured to at least $250,000 per insured bank

The FDIC Quarterly provides a comprehensive summary of the most current financial results for the banking industry, along with feature articles. These articles range from timely analysis of economic and banking trends at the national and regional level that may affect the risk exposure of FDIC-insured institutions to research on issues affecting the banking system and the development of regulatory policy. The FDIC Quarterly brings together data and analysis that were previously available through three retired publications -- the FDIC Outlook, the FDIC Banking Review, and the FYI: An Update on Emerging Issues in Banking. Past issues of these publications are archived under their original publication names.

Quarterly Banking Profile – Third Quarter 2011

FDIC-insured institutions reported an aggregate profit of $35.3 billion in the third quarter of 2011, an $11.5 billion improvement from the $23.8 billion in net income the industry reported in the third quarter of 2010. This is the ninth consecutive quarter that earnings registered a year-over-year increase. Lower provisions for loan losses were responsible for most of the year-over-year improvement in earnings. Third-quarter loss provisions totaled $18.6 billion, almost 50 percent less than the $35.1 billion that insured institutions set aside for losses in the third quarter of 2010.

Insurance Fund Indicators
Estimated insured deposits (based on $250,000 coverage) increased by 3.6 percent during the third quarter of 2011. The Deposit Insurance Fund reserve ratio was 0.12 percent on September 30, 2011, up from 0.06 percent at June 30, 2011, and -0.15 percent four quarters earlier. Twenty-six FDIC-insured institutions failed during the quarter.
