How do ICS/Sweep accounts work and why would I need one?
Institutions, like ours, that offer ICS/Sweep solutions are members of the IntraFi network. When we place your funds through the ICS, that deposit is divided into amounts under the standard FDIC insurance maximum of $250,000. The funds are then placed in demand deposit accounts or money market deposit accounts (using ICS), at multiple banks. As a result, you enjoy coverage from many institutions while working directly with just one. You receive one regular statement from our bank for each service in which you participate, and, as always, your confidential information is protected.
