Effective May 21, 2009, deposits at South Louisiana Bank are now FDIC insured up to at least $250,000 per depositor through December 31, 2013! Additionally, South Louisiana Bank is participating in the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under that program, through December 31, 2010, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account. The transaction account guarantee applies to all personal and business checking deposit accounts that do not earn interest. 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. On January 1, 2014, the general FDIC insurance amount will return to $100,000 per depositor for all account categories except for IRAs and other certain retirement accounts which will remain at $250,000 per depositor. Please contact a customer service representative for any questions you may have on deposit insurance.
