A: If you and your family have $250,000 or less in all of your deposit accounts at the same insured bank or savings association, you do not need to worry about your insurance coverage - your deposits are fully insured.

In addition, federal law provides insurance coverage up to $250,000 for certain retirement accounts.

A: It means that the FDIC guarantees all traditional types of deposit accounts (checking, savings, money market savings and CDs) up to $250,000 per depositor and guarantees individual retirement accounts (IRAs) up to $250,000 per owner.

The available balance represents the difference between the current balance and pending items (those items we have received but haven't posted).
