FAQs

Find answers to common questions about Kearny Bank and our services.

Banks that are deposit-taking banks within the program are only considered if they are categorized as “well capitalized” by the FDIC and have no outstanding enforcement actions such as cease and desist orders, particularly regarding capital structure. Status is evaluated quarterly.

The program administrator has not experienced a bank failure within the sweep program since the program's inception in 2011. On an annual basis, the program administrator tests its procedures for filing an FDIC claim for a "mock" bank failure to ensure a timely filing of a claim in the event of an actual bank failure.

Total balance levels may be accessed daily on Kearny Bank’s Online Banking. Monthly statements provide the name of each bank and the corresponding balance at each bank. Details of deposit placement amongst program banks may be accessed during the month via the program administrator’s online system.

The system provides daily liquidity. Funds may be accessed on any banking day without penalty. All transactions (checks / wires / EFTs / deposits) flow through the checking account as usual. Funds are automatically transferred to and from the sweep account as needed.

A current list of participating banks is provided at account setup. An account holder may ‘opt out’ of banks on the list to avoid exceeding the FDIC Insurance limit of $250,000 per individual tax ID.

Maximum insurance limits are set to allow a cushion for ‘opting out’ of several banks as well as interest posting. Should the balance approach a critical level, the account holder is notified of the potential insurance cap and may choose to leave the funds in the program or remove excess funds.

Interest is posted on the last day of the month and is reinvested in the program.

Interest is accrued daily and paid monthly using a standard simple interest calculation: ((Principal X (Rate/365)) X Number of days in Period).

Interest is paid by Kearny Bank. A 1099-INT is sent from Kearny Bank for tax purposes.
