MEMBERS, YOUR CREDIT UNION FUNDS ARE SECURE!! FEDERAL INSURANCE PROTECTION IS STRONG…

Your deposits at the GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE FCU are safe and secure. Member deposits in federal and almost all state chartered credit unions are federally insured by the NCUA, through the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). NCUSIF is in strong condition, secure, well-capitalized and backed by the full-faith and credit of the United States Government. Consumers who have federally insured funds in credit unions should rest assured that their deposits are safe up to at least $250,000.00 per account.
