is your bank safe?

[bsrsharma]

I am not aware of any mass failure of Credit Unions. My personal opinion is they are more cautious and don’t get into speculative/risky lending. So, I view them favorably compared to banks.

For a specific Credit Union, you should lookup at

for Safe & Sound and CAEL (Capitalization, Asset quality, Earnings and Liquidity) ratings.

If a bank were to fail, it wouldn’t come as a surprise. Most people would know well in advance at this point with the way the media spits out information. If you’re risk averse, pay attention to the FDIC limits. If you don’t want to have a bunch of accounts at different institutions, then buy US Treasury Bills. Structure out the maturities that coincide with your liquidity needs. Don’t take chances.

PB, You need to prove the assertion that "if a bank were to fail, it wouldn't come as a surprise." What about Netbank?? There were some small online business that had $1M in Netbank and got screwed. Guess the news didnt tell the 1500 people here:
