Extend FDIC Deposit Protection Beyond Standard Limits
The FDIC’s standard deposit insurance amount is $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, for each account ownership category.
For organizations managing millions of dollars in operating cash, reserves, bond proceeds or other funds, this can create concentration risk and leave a portion of deposits uninsured. If a bank fails, funds above applicable FDIC insurance limits are not guaranteed to be recovered, a risk brought into focus by the 2023 failure of Silicon Valley Bank.
Extended FDIC deposit protection can help reduce concentration risk through diversification. Organizations can spread funds across multiple financial institutions themselves, but doing so can create significant administrative work—from managing multiple banking relationships and portals to reconciling statements and monitoring rates.
ADM simplifies this process by diversifying eligible deposits across multiple FDIC-insured banks and NCUA-insured credit unions, helping organizations access extended federal deposit protection while managing their funds through one relationship.

Diversify Deposit Across a Network of Insured Institutions
ADM distributes eligible deposits across its network of FDIC-insured banks and NCUA-insured credit unions, helping organizations access extended federal deposit insurance while reducing the concentration risk of holding large balances at a single institution.
Maintain Visibility Through One Secure Portal
Manage cash without managing multiple banking relationships. ADM provides one secure portal to view balances, initiate transactions, and manage multiple entities, with consolidated reporting, dual-control capabilities, and a single monthly statement.
Balance Deposit Protection With Liquidity & Simplicity
Protecting cash is important, but safety alone does not create an effective cash management strategy.
Organizations also need access to funds when obligations arise, a process finance teams can realistically manage, and an opportunity to earn a competitive return on cash while it is held.
Access Cash for Planned & Unexpected Needs
Not every dollar needs the same level of liquidity.
ADM helps organizations match their cash strategy to expected cash-flow needs. Liquid solutions can provide access for operating expenses and unexpected needs, while CDs may be appropriate for funds with a known investment horizon.
ADM’s liquid accounts provide access to next-day liquidity to help manage unexpected expenses or changing cash flow needs.
Reduce Administrative Work for Lean Finance Teams
Managing deposit protection internally can mean opening accounts at multiple banks, comparing rates, moving funds, collecting statements, reconciling accounts and continually monitoring balances.
ADM centralizes that work.
Organization works through one relationship, one secure portal, one monthly statement and one 1099-INT. Through the ADM portal, teams can easily view funds and balances in one place, while ADM helps manage deposit placement, reporting and your ongoing cash strategy, giving finance teams more time to focus on the organization itself.
The Strength Behind ADM
Protecting organizational cash requires more than technology. It requires a partner that understands liquidity, deposit diversification and the responsibility finance leaders have for the funds entrusted to them.
Since 2009, American Deposit Management has helped organizations simplify the way they protect and manage cash.
ADM does not have to replace an existing bank relationship . Our solutions can complement existing banking relationships, giving organizations another tool for managing cash that exceeds traditional deposit insurance limits.
Existing banks can remain an important part of the organization’s financial infrastructure. ADM is designed to complement those relationships rather than replace them.

Extended FDIC Deposit Protection FAQs
What is extended FDIC deposit protection?
Extended FDIC deposit protection is a strategy for protecting eligible deposits above the standard insurance limit by distributing funds among multiple FDIC-insured banks.
The FDIC generally insures deposits up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category. By placing eligible funds at multiple insured institutions, an organization may access substantially more aggregate federal deposit insurance coverage.
ADM provides access to this additional coverage but does not provide FDIC insurance itself.
How can ADM help protect deposits above $250,000?
ADM helps organizations distribute funds across its exclusive network of insured financial institutions rather than concentrating the entire balance at one institution. Instead of your team opening and managing multiple bank accounts on its own, ADM handles the ongoing deposit placement and management through one relationship—helping you extend deposit protection while reducing the time and administrative work required to manage funds across multiple institutions.
How does NCUA deposit protection differ from FDIC insurance?
The FDIC insures eligible deposits held at FDIC-insured banks, while eligible accounts at federally insured credit unions receive federal share insurance through the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF), administered by the NCUA.
The standard NCUA share insurance amount is generally $250,000 per share owner, per insured credit union, for each account ownership category, subject to applicable requirements.
Can I keep my existing bank relationship?
Yes. ADM’s cash management solutions are designed to complement existing banking relationships.
Organization can continue using its existing bank for services while using ADM to help manage cash requiring additional diversification, protection, liquidity or yield opportunities.
How quickly can I access protected deposits?
Liquidity depends on the ADM product selected.
ADM offers next-day liquidity on liquid accounts, while access to funds held in CDs is subject to the terms of the specific CD.
Will I have to manage accounts at every bank holding my deposits?
No. One of ADM’s primary benefits is the ability to diversify eligible deposits without requiring finance teams to independently manage every participating institution.
ADM provides centralized account visibility, consolidated reporting and dedicated support through one relationship.
Will I receive multiple statements and tax documents?
ADM provides consolidated reporting designed to simplify the administrative work associated with managing diversified deposits, including one monthly statement and one 1099-INT for applicable ADM accounts.
What does ADM onboarding require?
ADM begins by reviewing the organization’s cash balances, liquidity needs and existing banking structure. Our Client Services team then helps develop the appropriate deposit strategy and guides the organization through account setup and funding.
Typically, accounts can be opened within one business day. ADM will provide an onboarding link to upload the needed documents and sign the Master Service Agreement. Applications are run through our standard KYC/BSA review. Once the account is opened, fund the account with an ACH or Wire.

- Signed W9
- SSN/Photo ID (for each signer)
