The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is a U.S. government agency that provides deposit insurance to depositors in American commercial banks and savings institutions. Established in 1933, the FDIC was created to restore public confidence in the banking system during the Great Depression, offering a safety net for depositors by insuring their deposits up to a certain limit, thus preventing bank runs and ensuring financial stability.
