DO

Use the full numerical year
when you date items.

EXAMPLE:

1/1/2020

DON'T

Abbreviate the year
to use only the last 2-digits.

EXAMPLE:

1/1/20

The date can easily be altered by adding numbers to the end of the year
which can back date or future date an item!

EXAMPLE:

1/1/20 can become 1/1/2015 or 1/1/2024

FDIC insurance covers all types of deposits received at an insured bank, including deposits in a checking account, negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW) account, savings account, money market deposit account (MMDA), time deposit such as a certificate of deposit (CD), or an official item issued by a bank, such as a cashier's check or money order.

FDIC does not insure money invested in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, life insurance policies, annuities or municipal securities, even if these investments are purchased at an insured bank.

Accounts will be insured by the FDIC up to the standard maximum deposit insurance amount ($250,000), for each deposit insurance ownership category.
