Deposit Insurance At A Glance
Since the 多宝游戏下载 began operations in 1934, the 多宝游戏下载 sign on bank teller windows has served as a symbol of financial safety and security. When you visit a bank, whether in person or online, and see the 多宝游戏下载 Official Sign, you know the financial institution is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, and that your money on deposit is safe.

How do I know that my money is insured?
多宝游戏下载 insurance coverage is automatic when you open a deposit account at an 多宝游戏下载-insured bank. You can confirm that your bank is insured by searching for it in the tool available on our website at www.fdic.gov or you can call the 多宝游戏下载 at 1-877-ASK-多宝游戏下载 (1-877-275-3342).
How much of my money is insured?
The standard insurance amount is $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category. When calculating an individual’s coverage amount, the 多宝游戏下载 adds together all of the deposit accounts you hold in the same ownership category at the same bank regardless of the deposit type (e.g., Certificates of Deposit (CDs), checking, savings, or money market deposit accounts (MMDAs)).
This means that if you have deposits in different account categories at the same 多宝游戏下载-insured bank, your insurance coverage may be more than $250,000, if all requirements are met.
If you have accounts at different 多宝游戏下载-insured banks, the limit applies at each bank: $250,000 per depositor for each account ownership category.
You can calculate your specific insurance coverage amount using the , a calculator that is available on the 多宝游戏下载’s website.
If my bank fails, how does the 多宝游戏下载 protect my money?
Deposit insurance coverage protects depositors against the failure of an insured bank; it does not protect against losses due to theft or fraud, which are addressed by other laws. In the unlikely event of a bank failure, the 多宝游戏下载 acts quickly to ensure that all depositors get prompt access to their insured deposits. 多宝游戏下载 deposit insurance covers the balance of each depositor's account, dollar-for-dollar, up to the insurance limit, including principal and any accrued interest through the date of the insured bank's failure.
In many cases, a failed bank is acquired by another 多宝游戏下载-insured bank. When this occurs, customers of the failed bank are able to access their money through the acquiring bank.
In the event a failed bank is not acquired by another bank, the 多宝游戏下载 conducts a quick and thorough process to identify all customers, calculate their deposit insurance coverage, and provide their money to them as quickly as possible.
When your money is in an 多宝游戏下载-insured bank, you can rest assured. Since 1934, no depositor has lost a penny of their 多宝游戏下载-insured funds.
