ABOUT US
Market-Linked
Certificates of Deposit (CDs)
Market-Linked Certificates of Deposit (CDs) are bank-issued deposits designed for investors who are mindful of risk and want principal protection on their investments so they can have the confidence to participate in the markets and capture any potential upside opportunities.
Are Market-Linked CDs right for you?
Protecting Your Assets
With FDIC Insurance
A Market-Linked Certificate of Deposit is a principal protected investment, and is subject to the credit risk of the issuing bank. Should the issuer become insolvent, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), an independent agency of the United States government, protects the principal investments of Market-Linked CDs as long as they’re held to maturity. Protection is only up to the allowable insurance limits.
The FDIC insures accounts held in several ownership categories. That means if you hold your MLCDs in multiple accounts in a variety of ownership categories, each account owner and each of their beneficiaries will qualify for coverage up to $250,000.
