FDIC Release

Notes: 

Although FDIC costs are counted on-budget, they should eventually be offset by proceeds from the sale of liquidated assets and higher premiums for deposit insurance. Maximum amount indicates value of total bank deposits. Amount spent and deficit impact represent FDIC-estimated cost to deposit insurance fund.
