Help your community 'know their risk and protect their money' by raising public awareness with this media kit

To increase the public's awareness of deposit insurance and how it can protect people's money in the event of a bank's failure, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation developed a national consumer campaign, "Know Your Risk. Protect Your Money."
