Abstract
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation is one of three federal agencies with responsibilities over commercial banks-and the last to be established. It was created in I933 to help restore public confidence in banks through the provision of insurance coverage for bank deposits and to protect the money supply in banks covered by deposit insurance.' Over the years, the Corporation's regulatory activities and philosophy have developed within its legal framework and in response to changes in banking and in the economy as a whole. In this article, I shall focus on the Corporation's role in bank supervision and on the contributions it has made and can make to the strength and viability of our banking system.
