FDIC Insurance Update

Notice of Changes In Temporary FDIC Insurance Coverage For Transactional Accounts

All funds in a "noninterest-bearing transaction account" are insured in full by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation from December 31, 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 "noninterest-bearing transaction account" includes a traditional checking account or demand deposit account on which the insured depository institution pays no interest. It does not include other accounts, such as traditional checking or demand deposit accounts that may earn interest, NOW accounts, and money-market deposit accounts.

An earnings credit allowance can be used only to offset service charges. An earnings allowance credit will be applied to your average monthly collected balance (less reserves required by law). FDIC insurance premium may be assessed monthly per $1,000 of average ledger balance. Premium is based on FDIC-mandated rate adjustments and may change from time to time; currently 0%.
