Do you have separate accounts totaling more than $100,000 at two merging financial institutions? First, congratulations. Second, remember the combined amount will be covered only until six months after the merger is completed. Beyond that, deposits held under the same name or type of account are insured only up to the $100,000 limit. "It's up to you to restructure your accounts during the six months," says FDIC counsel Christopher Hencke...
