Your money is safe with Eagle Credit Union.
The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) is the federal agency that administers the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). The NCUSIF, like the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund, is a federal insurance fund backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Here are some important facts to remember about your Eagle Credit Union share insurance provided by the NCUSIF:
- Not one penny of insured savings has ever been lost by a member of a federally insured credit union.
- Share accounts are insured up to the Standard Maximum Share Insurance Amount (SMSIA), $250,000 as of October 3, 2008. The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 increased the insurance coverage on all accounts up to $250,000 until December 31, 2009.
- Your credit union account may be insured for more than $250,000 depending on how you establish your accounts.
- For additional information on share insurance coverage, visit the NCUA website and view the brochure "Your Insured Funds."
- You may also use the NCUA Share Insurance Estimator to calculate your coverage.
Be assured that your money is safe and Eagle Credit Union has its member's best interest in mind each and every day.
