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 also
includes Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts ("IOLTAs"). 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.
