First Service Bank is participating in the FDIC's Transaction
Account
Guarantee Program. Under that program, through December 31,
2013, all
noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully guaranteed by
the
FDIC for the entire amount in the account. Coverage under the Transaction Account Guarantee Program is in addition to and
separate
from the coverage available under the FDIC's general deposit
insurance
rules.
Who is the FDIC?
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is an
independent
agency of the United States
government that protects against the loss of
insured deposits if an FDIC-insured bank or savings association
fails.
FDIC deposit insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of
the
United States
government. Since the FDIC was established, no depositor
has ever lost a single penny of FDIC-insured funds.
FDIC insurance covers funds in deposit accounts, including
checking and
savings accounts, money market deposit accounts and certificates
of
deposit (CDs). FDIC insurance does not, however, cover other
financial
products and services that insured banks may offer, such as
stocks,
bonds, mutual fund shares, life insurance policies, annuities or
municipal securities.
There is no need for depositors to apply for FDIC insurance or
even to
request it. Coverage is automatic.
To ensure funds are fully protected, depositors should
understand their deposit insurance coverage limits. The FDIC provides separate
insurance coverage for deposits held in different ownership categories
such as single accounts, joint accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts
(IRAs) and trust accounts.
Basic FDIC Deposit Insurance Coverage Limits *
Single Accounts (owned by one person)
$250,000 per owner
Joint Accounts (two or more persons)
$250,000 per co-owner
IRAs and certain other retirement accounts

Revocable Trust Accounts

*These deposit insurance coverage limits refer to the total of
all deposits that an accountholder (or accountholders) has at each FDIC-insured bank. The listing above shows only the most common ownership categories that apply to individual and family
deposits, and
assumes that all FDIC requirements are met.
