Protecting your savings with the highest level of security available is one of our major objectives. That is why we combine your federal deposit insurance coverage with excess deposit insurance protection from American Share Insurance(ASI), the nation's largest private insurer.

Your accounts are currently insured to a maximum of $100,000 by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), an agency of the federal government.

Additionally, your board of directors has chosen to provide up to an additional $250,000 of savings protection to each qualifying account through ASI.

ASI's Excess Deposit Coverage applies to any credit union account currently receiving the maximum level of $100,000 in coverage by NCUA.

ASI's Excess insurance is limited only by the number of accounts NCUA insures.

For example, if you have two credit union savings accounts, a regular savings account and IRA, each of these is covered separately by federal insurance up to $100,000. Each would also be eligible for ASI's Excess coverage of $250,000. Your account, therefore, would have a combined total coverage of $700,000.

ASI is a credit union share guaranty fund owned by its member credit unions. It was founded in 1974 and insures only credit unions.

Operating nationally, the company has taken great care to maximize the geographic and occupational diversity of its membership. This diversification, combined with sound insurance principles, offers its members greater security in times of regional economic downturns.

Excess insurance is available only to qualifying credit unions meeting rigid underwriting requirements and providing monthly financial information to ASI, including a list of members qualifying for this added insurance.

Either the credit union or American Share Insurance can terminate this Excess Coverage, but in either case, ASI requires that you be notified of any change in the insurance on your accounts.

If you are unsure about either the nature of the amount of your savings insurance protection, please contact one of your Member Service Representatives.
