How does ICS® work?
Through ICS®, the Insured Cash Sweep® service, many government depositors can access multi-million-dollar FDIC insurance on funds placed into demand deposit accounts (using the ICS demand option), money market deposit accounts (using the ICS savings option), or both.
Work directly with just us―an institution you already know and trust―to access coverage from many, receive just one regular statement, and know that your confidential information remains protected. Your organization has or sets up a transaction account with our bank, signs the agreements, and deposits funds.**
Deposits are sent to deposit accounts at other member institutions in amounts under the standard FDIC insurance maximum of $250,000.
** If you choose both the savings and demand options, you will need to have a separate transaction account for each.

Why you should consider FICA® | For Banks

As a FICA® | For Banks account holder, your funds will be placed into a network of well-capitalized, FDIC-insured financial institutions in increments of less than $250,000 so that both the principal and interest receive complete FDIC-protection.
