Episode Description
Hear from NCUA Chairman The Honorable Debbie Matz as she talks about the increase in coverage limits for money deposited in credit unions and how to make sure that your money is safe and sound in credit unions. Chairman Matz will discuss this and other issues around credit unions, which have grown in popularity amid the downturn. She will also talk about a new PSA campaign that Suze Orman is launching on behalf of the NCUA. While 90 million Americans are members of credit unions across the country, many aren’t aware that their money in credit unions is protected by the full faith of the U.S. Government the same way banks are protected by the FDIC. And a new law makes the coverage limits of $250,000 per account permanent. Chairman Matz discuss how credit unions are different than banks, how share insurance works and how you can immediately find out if your money is protected.
