FDIC Insurance

InterBank insures deposits through the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation), which is an independent agency of the United States government. The FDIC protects you against the loss of your deposits if an FDIC-insured bank or savings institution fails. FDIC insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. Since the FDIC’s creation in 1933, no depositor has ever lost even one penny of FDIC-insured funds. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act signed by President Barack Obama on July 21, 2010, made permanent the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount (SMDIA) of $250,000. The FDIC coverage limit applies per depositor, per insured depository institution, for each account ownership category.

Notice Of Changes In Temporary FDIC Insurance Coverage For Transaction Accounts

All funds in a "non interest-bearing transaction account" are insured in full by the FDIC from December 21, 2010, through December 31, 2012. This temporary unlimited coverage is in addition to, and separate from, the coverage of at least $250,000 available to depositors under the FDIC's general deposit insurance rules.

The term "non interest-bearing transaction account" includes a traditional checking account or demand deposit on which the bank pays no interest. The term also includes Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts (IOLTAs). The term does not include other accounts, such as traditional checking or demand deposit accounts that may earn interest, NOW accounts and money-market deposit accounts.
