(1) Scheme responsible for the protection of your deposit
Your deposit is covered by a statutory Deposit Guarantee Scheme. If insolvency of your credit institution should occur, your deposits would be repaid up to EUR 100,000.
(2) General limit of protection
If a deposit is unavailable because a credit institution is unable to meet its financial obligations, depositors are repaid by a Deposit Guarantee Scheme. This repayment covers at maximum EUR 100,000 per credit institution. This means that all deposits at the same credit institution are added up in order to determine the coverage level. If, for instance a depositor holds a savings account with EUR 90,000 and a current account with EUR 20,000, he or she will only be repaid EUR 100,000.
In some cases, regarding deposits that are related to certain defined events, such as sale of a private residence, termination of employment, inheritance or insurance claims, deposits are protected above EUR 100,000, up to an amount of EUR 2,5 million. More information can be obtained under www.insattningsgarantin.se.
