How ICS Protects Your Deposits
FAQs
What is ICS?
ICS (Insured Cash Sweep) is a method of offering our retail and commercial clients additional FDIC insurance, over and above the $250,000 FDIC insurance per Tax ID or Social Security Number.
How does it work?
ICS pools Primis' FDIC Insurance with that of other banks. For example, if Jane Doe has $500,000 with Primis, all balances above $250,000 would not be insured by the FDIC. If ICS were used to insure Ms. Doe’s funds, then the additional $250,000 would be ‘pooled’ with that of another bank, in exchange for Primis doing the same thing. For more information, see our resource article.
What kind of accounts can be collateralized?
Money Markets, CDs, Savings Accounts, and DDAs (in certain cases) can all be collateralized.
How long will it take to add this protection?
Once the contracts are signed, your funds are typically fully protected within the next 3-5 business days.
Is there a minimum dollar amount to protect?
Typically we see this used on accounts about $250,000, although we can establish this at lower dollar amounts if you think your deposits will grow above the amount protected by the FDIC.
What are the costs of this program?
As a service to our customers, Panacea offers this completely free on checking account balances over $250,000. For savings account balanes over $250,000 the ICS program reduces the savings rate by 0.125%.
