The deposit insurance system comprises the member institutions of the National Deposit Insurance Fund, i.e. banks, savings co-operatives, home savings banks and credit co-operatives. The Act refers to all of these collectively as credit institutions, but for the sake of brevity we will use the term 'bank' throughout this leaflet. Only member institutions of the Fund may accept deposits.

Should you have any doubts, do not hesitate to contact the National Deposit Insurance Fund.
