Nearly 5,000 individuals, corporations and nonprofit organizations support ShoreBank's work by placing deposits in ShoreBank's financial institutions. Each of ShoreBank's three banking subsidiaries is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), which insures depositors up to a maximum of $100,000.

You can help us continue and expand our community development work by investing in Development Deposits^sm and our environmental lending operations through EcoDeposits®.

If you would like to read about customers who are benefiting from socially responsible deposits, please visit the Annual Report section of this site, or read customer stories appearing throughout the site. 

Development Deposits^sm
ShoreBank's Development Deposits^sm accounts are standard, market-rate, federally insured bank deposits: checking accounts, time deposits, money markets, retirement (IRA) and savings accounts. The difference is that they support ShoreBank's development work.
 
By converting ordinary bank deposits into "development" loans, ShoreBank's borrowers convert deteriorated apartment buildings into income-producing properties, expand their small businesses, and upgrade their homes and property.  Development Deposits^sm are essential funding sources supporting our work in Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland.

Development Depositors can access their accounts through a bank-by-mail system and through the telephone system. The ShoreBank ATM network makes cash available instantly at locations around the world.
