Beginning January 1, 2013, all of a depositor’s accounts at an insured depository institution, including all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts, will be insured by the FDIC up to the standard maximum deposit insurance amount ($250,000), for each deposit insurance ownership category. For more information about FDIC insurance coverage of noninterest-bearing transaction accounts, visit http://www.fdic.gov/deposit/deposits/unlimited/expiration.html FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION (FDIC) The FDIC is an independent agency of the United States government that protects the funds depositors place in banks and savings associations. FDIC insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. Since the FDIC was established in 1933, no depositor has ever lost a single penny of FDIC-insured funds. FDIC insurance covers all deposit accounts, including checking and savings accounts, money market deposit accounts and certificates of deposit. FDIC insurance does not cover other financial products and services that banks may offer, such as stocks, bonds, mutual fund shares, life insurance policies, annuities or securities. The standard insurance amount is $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category. FDIC DEPOSIT INSURANCE COVERAGE The following chart shows standard insurance amounts for FDIC account ownership categories. 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. FDIC DEPOSIT INSURANCE COVERAGE LIMITS BY ACCOUNT OWNERSHIP CATEGORY Single Accounts owned by one person $ 250,000 per owner Joint Accounts owned by two or more persons $ 250,000 per co-owner Certain Retirement Accounts includes IRAs $ 250,000 per owner Revocable Trust Accounts $ 250,000 per owner per beneficiary up to 5 beneficiaries (more coverage available with 6 or more beneficiaries subject to specific limitations and requirements) Corporation, Partnership and Unincorporated Association Accounts $ 250,000 per corporation, partnership or unincorporated association Irrevocable Trust Accounts $ 250,000 for the non-contingent, ascertainable interest of each beneficiary Employee Benefit Plan Accounts $ 250,000 for the non-contingent, ascertainable interest of each plan participant Government Accounts $ 250,000 per official custodian THE MORE YOU KNOW ABOUT FDIC DEPOSIT INSURANCE COVERAGE, THE SAFER YOUR MONEY.
