3. Great Depression/New Deal What was included in the 1st new deal? (See cheat sheet) It set up the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) so that investors' money was guaranteed safe in banks that were members (most of which today are). Also, the Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC) which set guidelines for the stock market to prevent speculation like that that led to the Great Depression. Was the new deal successful in getting us out of the depression?

The start of WWII however is what pulled the economy out of depression.
