The standard FDIC deposit insurance
amount of $250,000 per
depositor is in effect through December 31, 2013.
On January 1, 2014, the standard insurance amount will
return to $100,000 per depositor for all account
categories except IRAs and other certain retirement
accounts, which will remain at $250,000 per depositor.
Beginning
January 1, 2010, The First National Bank of Ottawa will no longer
participate in the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Thus,
after December 31, 2009, funds held in non-interest bearing transaction
accounts* will no longer be guaranteed in full under the Transaction
Account Guarantee Program, but will be insured up to $250,000 under the
FDIC’s general deposit insurance rules.
*Includes IOLTA and certain NOW
accounts.

Protect
Yourself from Identity Theft
Identity theft can have devastating
consequences for you, as the victim, who may face long hours of
closing bad accounts, opening new ones, and repairing your wrecked
credit record. And, it may take significant out-of-pocket expenses
to clear your good name. In the meantime, you may be denied jobs,
loans, education, housing, and cars, or even get arrested for crimes
you did not commit. Unfortunately, the experience of thousands of
victims is that it often requires months, and even years, to
navigate the frustrating, identity-recovery process.
