Financial institutions can attract and retain loyal, high-value customers by offering IntraFi’s safe and convenient solutions for large cash balances. Our services enable institutions to strengthen their customer relationships while helping customers manage their cash through a single banking relationship.
Safety-conscious customers of all types appreciate the peace of mind provided by access to multi-million-dollar FDIC insurance through IntraFi’s network of banks. IntraFi® solutions are available for money market deposit accounts, demand deposit accounts, CDs, and brokerage accounts. Your customers will appreciate your institution proactively offering a service that protects their principal and interest, even for their largest deposits.
IntraFi solutions are flexible. Your institution owns the customer relationship, whether it keeps the associated deposits on-balance sheet using IntraFi services’ reciprocal deposits option, or sells the deposits to other banks in IntraFi’s network for fee income. Your customer’s information remains protected and confidential.
In fact, placements through IntraFi's ICS® and CDARS® solutions tend to be large and “sticky,” lowering customer acquisition costs and providing more opportunities for cross-selling. CDARS placements reinvest at a rate of approximately 80%.¹ Retention rates for ICS typically match or exceed traditional bank retention rates.2 Safety provides stability, so insured deposits generally don’t run off even during periods of market volatility.

of deposits reinvested within 28 days of maturity. [2] OCC Interest Rate Risk Statics Report for Fall 2023.
