At EFCU Financial, we are committed to providing our members with comprehensive protection for their hard-earned savings. In addition to the standard insurance provided by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), we offer Excess Share Insurance (ESI) to ensure your Share Certificate and Money Market deposits are safeguarded well beyond the conventional limits.
Excess Share Insurance (ESI) is an additional layer of protection for your savings. While the NCUA insures individual member accounts up to $250,000, ESI covers deposits up to $750,000, providing you with increased security and peace of mind.

To be eligible for excess coverage, EFCU Financial must comply with ESI’s rigid underwriting standards. Individual policies are not provided to members, and there is no direct cost to you for this coverage. EFCU Financial or ESI may terminate or modify this coverage, but in either case, you would be notified in writing of any change in the excess coverage.
Headquartered in Dublin, Ohio, ESI is a wholly owned subsidiary of American Share Insurance, a credit union-owned private deposit insurer founded in 1974 by credit unions, for credit unions. As a property and casualty insurer, ESI is subject to licensing and regulation by your state’s insurance department. Furthermore, the company’s financial statements are audited annually by an independent CPA firm and are available upon request through the credit union. ESI is not a federal or state government agency.
