Reduce collateralization, improving liquidity and ROA.
ICS® and CDARS® deposit products are now IntraFi℠ Network Deposits℠.
Through IntraFi Network Deposits, banks can offer access to multi-million-dollar FDIC insurance. Such access enables institutions to attract and retain large-dollar, safety-conscious customers without having to hold Treasuries or securities as collateral. This can increase profitability and asset liquidity while reducing tracking costs and enabling funds previously tied up in collateral to be deployed at a higher yield.

What bank leaders say.
We enjoy being able to replace repos and letters of credit, as well as reducing our need for collateral, with [IntraFi Network Deposits].
Chris Huss
[IntraFi Network Deposits] is the perfect match for us and our public fund customers. It can eliminate the need for deposit collateralization, which frees up our time, frees up their time, and reduces everyone’s administrative tracking costs. It also allows our previously restricted funds to work harder and for their funds to be channeled back into the local community. We all win.
Russell L. Reinert
In 2008, we were very tight on managing our collateral for public funds. Local municipalities were able to provide larger amounts of deposits but required protection. Prior to [IntraFi’s] products, we had hard thresholds and a difficult time retaining and originating these relationships. As we continue to see growth of our balance sheet, [IntraFi’s] products will be important to taking care of certain customers. I think our success allows us to serve that mission better.
