Member FDIC
Do you know what FDIC really means?
Ubium’s ability to use the term “Member FDIC” indicates Ubium has met the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (FDIC) high standards for financial strength and stability. It also means that our deposits are backed not only by Ubium’s solid financial performance but are FDIC insured.
What is the FDIC?
The FDIC is an independent agency of the United States government. They, along with other federal and state regulatory agencies, regularly review all FDIC-insured banks, such as Ubium, to ensure standards are met. It’s also the FDIC’s role to preserve and promote the public confidence in the U.S. financial system by insuring deposits in financial institutions.
Why is FDIC insurance important to you?
FDIC insurance protects deposits from loss up to the FDIC insurance limit, including principal and accrued interest. Deposits include checking accounts, NOW accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and certificates of deposit (CDs).
