Important information about deposit insurance
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is an independent agency of the United States government that protects depositors of an insured bank located in the United States against the loss of their deposits if an insured bank fails. The standard deposit insurance amount is up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category. The FDIC covers depositors’ accounts at each insured bank, dollar for dollar, including principal and any accrued interest through the date of the insured bank’s closing, up to the insurance limit. FDIC insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government.
The FDIC provides separate coverage for deposits held in different categories of legal ownership. Depositors may qualify for more than $250,000 in insurance coverage if their funds are deposited in different ownership categories and all FDIC requirements for each ownership category are met. All deposits that an account holder has in the same ownership category at the same bank are added together and insured up to the standard insurance amount.
