Banks were one of the first institutions to feel the effects of the Stock Market crash because people feared for their money and rushed to withdraw their savings.
The Wall Street Crash of 1929, also known as Black Tuesday, the Great Crash, or the Stock Market Crash of 1929, began on October 24, 1929, and was the most devastating stock market crash in the history of the United States, when taking into consideration the full effects of the collapse.
If you are referring to the stock market crash of 1929, that was the beginning of the Great Depression.
It was because of the great depression, which meant the stock market crash. Of course the stock market crashing would cause the money to drop in its worth for example if you had £1000 it would drop down to £10 (just an example). People had money stored in banks, so the bank would owe the people lots of money but the money would be worth less so they would need more money to repay the people, but in fact they didn't have enough, in turn this caused the banks to crash.
FDIC stands for the "Fedral Deposit Insurance Corporation". This is a federal government entity set up after the the stock market crash of the 1930's bankrupted thousands of banks and other financal institutions across the United States. Millions of people lost their entire life savings when the banks defaulted. When they went to withdraw their savings or checking accounts they were turned away because the bank had no money to give them. At that time their was little if anything the public could do to recoup their losses. Today the FDIC insures consumer deposits in member financial institutions up to the stated amount.
