Founded in 1985 by John E. Rickmeier, President, IDC is the industry standard for rating financial institutions. IDC's proprietary CAMEL analysis assesses the overall safety and soundness of over 14,000 financial institutions each quarter. The bank rating methodology of analyzing 35 key financial ratios provides a one-number IDC quality rank from 1 (the lowest) to 300 (the highest) for each institution reporting to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), Federal Reserve, Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), and the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). The financial ratings fall into one of six peer group categories: Superior, Excellent, Average, Below Average, Lowest Ratios, and Rank of One. IDC's methodology for ranking financial institutions for quality is an open platform, allowing banks, thrifts, credit unions, and any client to understand financial ratios and ranks.
