    Here is the link to “costs” of FDIC failures:

    http://portalseven.com/banks/Failed_Banks_FDIC_Cost.jsp

    Rolling 6-month “costs” to FDIC are down more than 80% from the peak on a pretty linear decline. Costs are now averaging $600m per month… while the peak months, there were 4 months above $6B each (over 10x as much!). This looks set to decline further as March looks set to be the lowest month yet.
