Deposits are insured by the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation - for banks) or the NCUSIF (National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund - for credit unions). These are both basically insurance companies that are funded by their respective industries and step in when a financial institution fails, to ensure that deposits up to a set limit are fully recoverable by depositors. Before the latest financial crisis, coverage was capped at $100,000 per depositor per institution; prodded by the crisis, it has been increased to $250,000 (though this may be temporary).

Government insurance can be insurance that protects a government, insurance that is administered by a government, insurance that is funded or guaranteed by a government, or insurance that is made available to a government or governments or employees of a government or governments.Examples:The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC): This was created during the Great Depression of the 1930s. To prevent banks from going bankrupt due to "runs" on banks that are rumored to be in trouble, the FDIC guarantees individuals' bank accounts up to a certain amount per account (the maximum had been $100,000 for a long time, but it may have gone up to $250,000).Government Employees' Insurance Co. (GEICO): When the service first started it was available to only employees of U.S. governments.
