On September 30, 2018, the Deposit Insurance Fund Reserve Ratio reached 1.36 percent, exceeding the minimum reserve ratio of 1.35 percent ahead of the September 2020 deadline mandated by Dodd-Frank.

- "small banks will receive assessment credits for their assessments that contributed to the growth in the reserve ratio between 1.15 percent and 1.35 percent (applied when the reserve ratio is at or above 1.38 percent)."
