Deposit insurance protects the credit balances of private and corporate clients in the event of a bank or securities firm's bankruptcy. This guarantee is regulated by law. The protection is limited to a maximum of CHF 100 000 per client and institution. Multiple accounts are added together. "esisuisse", a self-regulatory organisation for banks in Switzerland, guarantees that it will cover protected deposits as part of the self-regulation of Swiss banks and securities firms. Deposits at ICBC Zurich Branch are covered by the deposit insurance scheme. Detailed information at www.esisuisse.ch.
