NOTICE OF CHANGES IN TEMPORARY
FDIC INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR TRANSACTION 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. Commencing January 1, 2011, all NOW
accounts will be insured under the general deposit insurance rules and will no
longer be eligible for unlimited protection.
