FAQ

What is Alliant Credit Union insured by?

Your accounts are federally insured! Alliant has stood financially strong since 1935. And you can rest even easier, because your money is federally protected by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). No member of a federally insured credit union has ever lost one penny of insured savings.

Is Alliant Credit Union trustworthy?

Is my money safe at Alliant Credit Union? Yes. Alliant deposit accounts are insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) for up to $250,000, per depositor, for each account ownership category, in the event of a credit union failure.

What does the NCUA not cover?

The NCUA does not insure money invested in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, life insurance policies, annuities or municipal securities, even if these investment or insurance products are sold at a federally insured credit union.

Does adding a beneficiary increase NCUA coverage?

All IRA and Roth IRA shares that an individual has in the same insured credit union are added together and the total is insured up to $250,000. Keogh accounts are insured separately up to $250,000. Note: Naming beneficiaries on a retirement account does not increase share insurance coverage.
