FDIC — Unclaimed Funds from Failed Bank Deposits

Reward Up to $250,000 in FDIC-insured deposits per depositor per institution. Unclaimed dividends from failed bank liquidation estates vary.

When a bank fails, the FDIC takes over and pays insured deposits up to $250,000 per depositor. Some depositors don't claim their funds — the FDIC holds these as unclaimed deposits until claimed. The FDIC also has unclaimed dividend payments from failed bank liquidations (investors or creditors who didn't receive their distribution). Search the FDIC unclaimed funds database if you or a family member had accounts at a failed bank. The FDIC has handled over 500 bank failures since 2008 alone.
