All major accounting companies, with the exception of Arthur Andersen, experienced significant losses when the savings and loan sector collapsed in the 1980s since they were in charge of performing audit work on failing financial institutions.

The first significant financial crisis following the Great Depression was the Savings and Loan Crisis of the 1980s and 1990s. Customers and taxpayers suffered as a result of the crisis, which saw thousands of savings and loan organizations close their doors and billions of money wasted. There were 4,039 savings banks in operation in 1980, and between 1980 and 1994, over 1,300 of them collapsed. The fund that protected the deposits of savings banks was destroyed as a result of the high percentage of failures, and the remaining institutions as well as the taxpayers were hit hard by the costs.

The United States had a financial crisis in the 1980s as a result of both rising high-yield debt instruments, or "junk bonds," and surging inflation. As a result, more than half of the country's Savings & Loans institutions failed. The origin of the S & L crisis was the 1934 expansion of federal deposit insurance to S & Ls. Because all S & Ls paid the same insurance premium rate regardless of how safe or dangerous they were, deposit insurance was actuarially unsound from the start.
