Your FDIC Coverage

Insuring Your Deposits

What is the FDIC?

The FDIC-short for the Federal
Deposit Insurance
Corporation- 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
association fails.  FDIC
insurance is backed by the full
faith and credit of the United
States government.



To check whether your bank or
savings association is insured
by the FDIC call toll-free 1-
877-275-3342, used the FDIC
Institution Directory www2.
fdic.gov/idasp, or look for the
signs where deposits are
received.  (For simplicity, the
term “insured bank” is used to
mean any bank or savings
association that has FDIC
insurance.)



Why Is FDIC Insurance
Important to You?



All FDIC-insured banks must
meet high standards for
financial strength and
stability.  The FDIC, with other
federal and state regulatory
agencies, regularly reviews
the operations of all insured
banks to ensure these
standards are met.  Despite
these safeguards, some inured
banks fail.  If your insured
bank fails, FDIC insurance will
cover your deposit accounts
dollar for dollar, including
principal and any accrued
interest, up to the insurance
limit.



Historically, insured funds are
available to depositors within
just a few days after the
closing of an insured bank.  
Since the start of the FDIC in
1933, no depositor has ever
lost a penny of insured
deposits.
