WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. on Tuesday voted to propose assessing higher fees on large, risky financial institutions and possibly lower fees for many small and less-risky big banks. The proposal, which will have a sixty-day comment period, will eliminate the FDIC's reliance, in part, on credit rating agency scores and replace it with one that uses a new methodology that takes into account whether an institution can withstand financial stresses as well as whether each institution's collapse would be more or less risky to the economy
