FDIC Insurance
State Bank of Southern Utah is a member of the FDIC, which means that your eligible deposits are insured against loss in the event of a bank failure.
The FDIC permanently increased basic deposit insurance coverage to $250K per depositor, per institution, per ownership category. You should think of this as a minimum insured amount. FDIC coverage may be multiplied well above the minimum by using ownership categories and account types to your advantage. Each category/type listed below is insured separately.
- Single ($250K): You are the only signer on the account or the account is for a sole proprietor business.
- Joint ($250K per Signer): You and other signers have equal rights of withdrawal and each person has signed the signature card.
- Informal Trust ($250K per grantor/beneficiary): Living Trusts, Pay on Death (POD), In Trust For (ITF) or other revocable trust. Example: (two grantors) x (three beneficiaries) x ($250K each) = $1.5 million of FDIC insurance.
- Formal Trust: ($250K per grantor/beneficiary): Account is governed by a trust document that cannot be revoked or changed.
- Retirement ($250K): IRA accounts at the bank fall under this category and are insured up to $250K.
- Organization ($250K): Business entities fall under this category.
- IOLTA and UARHOF accounts ($250K): Client owned funds maintained by lawyers and realtors in trust accounts.
- CDARS (Insuring funds exceeding the FDIC maximums above): Talk to our New Accounts representatives about placing your CDs into the CDARS network.
Please see a new account representative to make the most of your FDIC Insurance.
