Example 3 (b) Queson: T is trustee for the ABC Employees Rerement Account containing $2,000,000. Parcipant A has a determinable interest of $180,000 in the account (9 percent of the total). T invests $1,000,000 of the account in an insured credit union and the remaining $1,000,000 elsewhere. Some of the parcipants of the account are members of the credit union and some are not. T does not segregate each parcipant’s interest in the rerement account. What is the insurance coverage Answer: The account is insured as to the determinable interest of each parcipant, adjusted in proporon to the account’s investment in the credit union, regardless of the membership status of the parcipants. A’s insured interest in the account is $90,000, or 9 percent of $1,000,000. This reflects the fact that only 50 percent of the rerement account is in the account and A’s interest in the account is in the same proporon as his interest in the overall plan. All other parcipants would be similarly insured. Parcipants’ interests not capable of evaluaon are added together and insured up to a maximum of $250,000 in aggregate. Example 4 Queson: Member A has an individual account of $250,000 and establishes an IRA and accumulates $250,000 in that account. Subsequently, A becomes self-employed and establishes a Keogh account in the same credit union and accumulates $250,000 in that account. What is the insurance coverage 57

Answer: Each of A’s accounts would be separately insured as follows: • the individual account for up to $250,000; • the IRA account for $250,000, the maximum for that account type; and • the Keogh account for $250,000, the maximum for that account type. In the example, A would be fully insured for $750,000. Example 5 Queson: Member A has a self-directed IRA account with $70,000 in it. The federally insured credit union is the trustee of the account. Member transfers $40,000 into a blue chip stock; $30,000 remains in the federally insured credit union. What is the insurance coverage Answer: Originally, the full $70,000 in A’s IRA is insured. The $40,000 is no longer insured once it is moved from the federally insured credit union. The $30,000 remaining in the federally insured credit union is insured. 58
