FDIC Insurance

Deposit accounts at First State Bank & Trust are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The basic insurance amount is $100,000 per depositor per insured bank. FDIC deposit insurance under the FDIC’s general deposit insurance rules has been temporarily increased from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor through December 31, 2013.
 
First State Bank & Trust is participating in the FDIC's Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under that program, through June 30, 2010, all non interest-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.

Certain retirement accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts, are insured up to $250,000 per depositor per insured bank. You can increase your personal FDIC insurance coverage with proper structuring of accounts (i.e. joint tenants, trust, payable on death accounts, etc.). Ask a personal banker for more information.
