Does the NDIC finance its Operations from the Insurance Fund?

No. NDIC finances all its overhead and administrative expenses from its investment income.  The main source of income for the NDIC is the proceeds from investment of the insurance fund in securities issued by the Federal Government.  The insurance fund is used only for paying insured deposits when an insured institution fails as well as for granting financial assistance to deserving participating institutions. The NDIC does not enjoy subvention from the government.
