FDIC's Electronic Deposit Insurance Estimator
EDIE lets consumers and bankers know, on a per-bank basis, how the insurance rules and limits apply to a depositor's specific group of deposit account
s-what's insured and what portion (if any) exceeds coverage limits at that
bank. EDIE also allows the user to print the report for their records.
*On July 21, 2010, the United States President signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which, in part, permanently raises the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount to $250,000.
“All non-interest bearing transaction deposit accounts at an FDIC-insured institution, including all personal and business checking deposit accounts that do not earn interest, are fully insured for the entire amount in the deposit account. This unlimited insurance coverage is temporary and will remain in effect for participating institutions until December 31, 2010.”
