ASI insures accounts, not individuals. Each account that you have with the credit union is insured for up to $250,000. For example, if you have $250,000 in a Regular Share Account and $250,000in a Term Share Certificate, your total insurance coverage is $500,000. For account balances in excess of $250,000, we offer an additional $250,000 coverage per account. Each share type in each account is insured up to $500,000.

Your board of directors and membership have elected to have their accounts protected by ASI for several reasons. First, ASI is a non-federal insurer, owned by credit unions. It maintains a unique perspective by working as a partner with the credit union to assure that the best interests of you, the member, are protected.

Through its monthly monitoring system, annual review process and business approach, we are able to structure the proper programs to meet the needs of our membership while operating within the confines of safety and soundness.

To qualify as an ASI-insured member, Plus Credit Union is required to meet strict underwriting standards and submit full financial statements and other relevant information monthly.

Additionally, we are subjected to regular, extensive field audits by ASI, state regulators, independent accountants and others. Any variation in required standards becomes the focus of ASI's efforts to restore sound policies and operations.

ASI is a multi-state insurer, regulated by each state in which it operates. The corporation has been headquartered in Dublin, Ohio, for over 20 years, and both the Ohio Departments of Insurance and Commerce oversee its operations.
