HOW DO I KNOW MY CREDIT UNION IS FEDERALLY INSURED?
Federally insured credit unions are required to indicate their insured status in their advertising and to display the official NCUSIF insurance sign in their offices and branches. For a complete directory of federally insured credit unions, visit the NCUA’s agency website at ncua.gov.
COVERAGE LIMITS
The standard share insurance amount is $250,000 per share owner, per insured credit union, for each account ownership category. The $250,000 standard share insurance account became permanent through the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.
