Deposit Insurance Your deposits are insured in full. Pilgrim Bank your deposits are insured in full by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to the limits. The Share Insurance Fund of Massachusetts (SIF) insures deposits above that level. There are no maximum account limitations or amount limitations. FDIC Deposit Insurance Coverage Basic Insurance - The standard maximum deposit insurance amount is $250, 000 per depositor per insured deposit institution for each ownership category. This coverage was made permanent by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of July 2010. Deposits in different institutions are insured separately. However, if an institution has one or more branches, the main office and all the branch offices are considered to be one institution. Deposits maintained in different categories of legal ownership at the same bank can be separately insured, making it possible to have deposits of more than $250, 000 at one insured bank and still be fully insured. This can increase your coverage to as much as $3, 000, 000.
