Deposit Insurance Coverage
Free Nationwide Seminars for Bank Officers and Employees

The FDIC will conduct 12 free seminars on deposit insurance coverage for bank officers and employees between May 6, 2014, and December 4, 2014, including:

The objective of the seminars is to provide bank employees with basic knowledge of the FDIC's deposit insurance rules needed to help depositors correctly determine their deposit insurance coverage. Participation in the seminars is strictly voluntary and is open to employees and officers of all FDIC-insured depository institutions.

The Fundamentals Seminar will consist of a 70-minute presentation, and the Revocable Trust Seminar and the Advanced Topics Seminar will each consist of a 45-minute presentation. A question-and-answer period, which typically lasts an hour, will follow each seminar. Each seminar is linked to a slide presentation (see attachment).

The seminars are free, but advance registration is required. Upon completing the registration process, participants will receive an RSVP e-mail confirmation, along with a PIN that is required to join the seminar on the date selected. If you register but do not receive an e-mail confirmation, verify the e-mail address provided and repeat the registration process.

The email confirmation will contain a "join the meeting" link that automatically starts the Microsoft Office Live Meeting Client and connects participants to the seminar. This link will be active 30 minutes prior to the scheduled start time of each event. If this is the first time you are joining a meeting, you may need to install the Microsoft Office Live Meeting Client before you can join the session. Unlike previous deposit insurance seminars, you must log in to join the Live Meeting and dial into a conference call for the audio component of the presentation, including the question-and-answer period.

Registration procedures and instructions for accessing the seminar slide presentations are included in the attachment. The PowerPoint presentation is subject to change based on the adoption of any statutory, regulatory, or policy changes affecting the calculation of deposit insurance coverage.

Contact the FDIC Call Center at 877-ASK-FDIC (877-275-3342) for more information about the FDIC's 2014 schedule of deposit insurance seminars or to request assistance with the registration process.

The FDIC looks forward to your institution's participation in our 2014 seminar series.
