Frequently Asked Questions

  • Banks, like ours, that offer ICS are members of the IntraFi Network. When we place your funds through the ICS service, that deposit is divided into amounts under the standard FDIC insurance maximum of $250,000. The funds are then placed in demand deposit accounts or money market deposit accounts (using ICS), at multiple banks. As a result, you can access coverage from many institutions while working directly with just one.
  • You will receive one monthly statement for each service in which you participate, and, as always, your confidential information is protected.
  • When you deposit money in a bank, the bank uses those funds to make loans. With ICS, we can ensure that the funds placed through ICS can stay local to support lending opportunities to build a stronger community.

    When deposited funds are exchanged on a dollar-for-dollar basis with other instutions that use ICS, our bank can use the full amount of a deposit placed through ICS for local lending, satisfying some depositors' local investmenet goals or mandates. Alternatively, with a depositor's consent, our bank may choose to receive fee income instead of deposits from other participating institutions. Under these cirumstances , deposited funds will not be available in local lending.
  • A demand deposit account is just a different term for a checking account.

Deposit placement through CDARs or ICS is subject to terms, conditions, disclosures in applicable agreements. Although deposits are placed in increments that do not exceed the FDIC standard maximum deposit insurance amount (SMIDA) at any one destination bank, a depositor's balances at the institution that places deposits may exceed the SMDIA (e.g. before settlement for deposits or after settlement for withdrawals) or be uninsured (if the placing institution is not an insured bank). The depositor must make any necessary arrangements to protect such balances of consistent with applicable law and must determine whether placement through CDARs or ICS satisfies any restrictions on its deposits. A list identifying IntraFi network banks appears at https://www.intrafi.com/network-banks. The depositor may exclude banks from eligibility to receive its funds. IntraFi and ICS are registered service marks.
