*The Financial Claims Scheme (FCS) limit of $250,000 applies to the sum of an account holder’s deposits under each Authorised Deposit-taking Institution (ADI) and so includes accounts with any other banking businesses that the ADI may operate under a different name. Auswide Bank is an ADI and is prudentially supervised by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA). Auswide Bank is a single banking institution, but may have branding arrangements with other entities (such as Elders). If you have an Elders product as well as a product branded as Auswide Bank Ltd, the combined total of these accounts will be counted towards your $250,000 limit.
