The Act outlines the Corporation's functions and powers, including the ability to levy contributions from member institutions and manage the Deposit Insurance Fund. It also details the Corporation's role as a receiver and liquidator of institutions, with powers to declare moratoriums, sell assets, and carry on the business of the institution.
