Here's why your deposits are safe and secure at Tech CU.
In uncertain times, it is no wonder many people feel their savings may be at risk. We are here to reassure you that, even now, your money is safe at Tech CU.
Your Deposits Are Federally Insured
Savings, share drafts, money markets, and retirement accounts at Tech CU are federally insured up to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) and backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. Moreover, not one cent of insured deposits has ever been lost by a member of a federally insured credit union. This means you can rest assured that your hard-earned money is backed by a reliable network. Additionally, it should be noted that unlike the 2008 financial crisis, the current situation is not generated by the banking system. So although it has certainly caused financial dilemmas, the pandemic is not a symptom of institutional breakdown in the financial sector.
You Have Access to Safe and Ultra-Accessible Banking
There is no need to withdraw large sums of cash during this time. Doing so may actually make your funds susceptible to fraud and scams (see our recent articles on fraud). Instead, only withdraw what you need and rest easy knowing you have constant access to Tech CU’s online and mobile banking. If you need to sign up for online banking, just follow the prompts. And remember, your money in Tech CU accounts receives favorable interest rates!
