FDIC insured

Government-backed bank savings

FDIC insured describes bank deposits protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, a U.S. government agency.

If an FDIC-insured bank fails, depositors are guaranteed to recover their money up to the coverage limit—currently $250,000 per depositor, per bank.

The phrase appears on bank signage and advertisements to signal safety: Your deposits are FDIC insured.
