Expanded FDIC Deposit Insurance Protection
Expanded FDIC Deposit Insurance Protection
All deposits at Preferred Bank are covered by the standard FDIC Insurance amount of $250,000 per customer. If your deposits exceed $250,000, we offer additional FDIC insurance coverage through IntraFi® Network Deposits CD accounts and DDA/MMDA accounts. When you utilize these services, we’ll split your deposit into increments less than $250,000 and place these funds across our network of well-capitalized banks. With this arrangement, your entire deposit will remain fully protected, while you continue to work with Preferred Bank.
Certificate of Deposit (CD) Accounts
With CD accounts, you can access insurance on deposits up to $50 million and earn interest rates comparable to CDs. Maturities range from 4 weeks to two years.
Demand Deposit Account (DDA) & Money Market Deposit Account (MMDA)
DDA/MMDA allows you to place funds into demand deposit and/or money market deposit accounts. You can deposit up to $100 million for each account type. With this option, you may receive expanded insurance protection and still have the flexibility to access your funds when you need them.
