Notice of Change in Temporary FDIC Insurance Coverage for Transaction
Accounts
In accordance with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, from Dec. 31, 2010, through Dec. 31, 2012, all funds
in “noninterest-bearing transaction accounts” are insured in full by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. This unlimited coverage is in
addition to, 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 any transaction
account that may earn interest, such as a negotiable order of withdrawal
(“NOW”) account, money-market deposit account, or Interest on Lawyers
Trust Account (“IOLTA”), even if checks may be drawn on the account.
The temporary full insurance coverage of “noninterest-bearing transaction
accounts” expires on Dec. 31, 2012. After Dec. 31, 2012, funds in
noninterest-bearing transaction accounts will be insured under the FDIC’s
general deposit insurance rules, subject to the Standard Maximum Deposit
Insurance Amount of $250,000.
