Is My Money Safe At PSCU? 
Your savings are federally insured to $100,000 by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), a
U.S. government agency. In addition, your IRA funds are separately insured to $100,000 by the NCUA. The NCUA administers the National Credit Unions Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF), long held to be the model for other federal insurance agencies, such as the banks FDIC. Rest assured that there is no safer place for your money than a federally insured credit union.  And now PSCU has been approved by the private insurace company, ESI, to insure our members' savings up to $350,000 and IRA funds are now protected up to $500,000!  Not all credit unions qualify for this extra insurance, ESI only chooses top performing credit unions for its program.  This is a testament to safety and soundness of Public Service Credit Union.
