Guaranty Bank is participating in the FDIC's Transaction Account Guarantee Program.  Under that program, through December 31, 2010, all non interest-bearing transaction accounts and all IOLTA & NOW account deposits earning 1/2 of 1% or less are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account.  Coverage under the Transaction Account Guarantee Program is in addition to and separate from the coverage available under the FDIC's general deposit insurance rules.

If you have a sweep arrangement with your accounts or take other actions that result in funds being transferred or reclassified to an account that is not guaranteed under the transaction account guarantee program (to an interest-bearing money market account, for example),  such actions will void the FDIC's guarantee that provides unlimited insurance for transaction accounts.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT

To help the government fight the funding of terrorist and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.

What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask you for your name, address, date of birth and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.
