Frequently Asked Questions

How does ics work?

When you deposit funds into an ICS account at City National Bank of Florida, we place your funds into deposit accounts at other FDIC-insured banks within the ICS network. Your funds are divided into amounts under the FDIC insurance limit at each bank in the network, allowing you to access FDIC insurance coverage on the full amount of your deposit. We act as the custodian of your funds and provides you with a single monthly statement summarizing your account activity and balances.

¹Deposit placement through CDARS or ICS is subject to the terms, conditions, and disclosures in applicable agreements. Although deposits are placed in increments that do not exceed the FDIC standard maximum deposit insurance amount (“SMDIA”) at any one destination bank, a depositor’s balances at the institution that places deposits may exceed the SMDIA (e.g., before settlement for deposits or after settlement for withdrawals) or be uninsured (if the placing institution is not an insured bank). The depositor must make any necessary arrangements to protect such balances consistent with applicable law and must determine whether placement through CDARS or ICS satisfies any restrictions on its deposits. A list identifying IntraFi network banks appears at https://www.intrafi.com/network-banks.(Opens in a new Tab) The depositor may exclude banks from eligibility to receive its funds.
