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 Paducah Bank, 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).
