Q: Who regulates banks?
A: That depends on the bank's charter. There are three federal regulators—the Federal Reserve Board; the Comptroller of the Currency; and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The FDIC also insures deposits in its member banks up to $250,000 for regular accounts and retirement accounts. That insurance applies to accounts in FDIC member banks that are commercial banks, thrifts and savings banks. We are regulated by the OCC and our deposits are insured by the FDIC.
