The savings and loan crisis refers to the collapse of 1,043 out of 3,234 savings and loan associations (S&Ls) in the United States during the 1980s and 1990s. The S&L crisis was considered to be one of the most devastating failures of the banking industry in the United States after the Great Depression.
Although large S&Ls exist, many savings and loans are smaller, community-focused institutions. Unlike banks, which are owned by investors, S&Ls are generally owned cooperatively by their depositors and borrowers.
Federal savings and loan businesses are operated in one of two ways. Under the mutual ownership model, an S&L is owned by its depositors and borrowers. An S&L can also be established by a group of shareholders who own all the shares in the thrift.
Savings and loan (S&L) associations (also called thrifts) are lending and banking institutions specialized in offering residential mortgage loans and accepting savings deposits. S&L associations may also offer other services that commercial banks provide to their customers, such as checks and other types of loans.
