What should I consider before I open a foreign currency account at EverBank®?

We feel it's important to assess your tolerance for the risks associated with currency fluctuations. While FDIC insurance will protect you from bank failure up to $250,000 (until December 31, 2013), currency values can be affected by various geopolitical and economic influences and this can negatively and positively impact the amount of your deposit. We recommend that you carefully consider both the potential for currency appreciation (or loss) along with the rate of interest that you may earn when assessing the use of foreign currency products as part of a broadly diversified investment strategy.

We encourage you to use our foreign currency resources to educate yourself about currency investing and the factors that influence currency values.

What can you tell me about any risks associated with WorldCurrency accounts?

While FDIC insurance will protect you from bank failure up to $250,000 (until December 31, 2013), it's important to understand that your deposit will be susceptible to losses or gains due to currency-price fluctuations. Various geopolitical and economic influences can affect a currency's value. We recommend that you carefully consider both the potential for currency appreciation (or loss) along with the rate of interest that you may earn when assessing the use of foreign currency products as part of a broadly diversified investment strategy.

Important Disclosures

  1. If you request funds in this account be denominated in a currency other than the currency you deposit with EverBank, we will convert your currency using a then current Exchange Rate. The Exchange Rate you pay will be within 1% of the available Market Rate for the selected foreign currency. Exceptions may occur when a specific conversion rate is agreed upon between you and EverBank or when an Exchange Rate is limited by conditions beyond our control (including government restrictions, wars, insurrections, economic conditions in the country whose currency you select or in the United States, and/or other "Acts of God"). The Market Rate is a market price available on the Interbank currency market and is not published in any newspaper, on any website or in any other publicly available source. Published exchange rates or spot rates may not accurately reflect rates on the Interbank Market or the Exchange Rate available to you. You are not obligated to conduct Exchange Transactions with EverBank. Please see the Foreign Currency Deposit Account Disclosure for more information about EverBank's Exchange Rates.

  2. Because this is a money market account, you are limited by federal regulation to six transfers or withdrawals per month. See Terms and Conditions for details. Withdrawals or transfers in excess of these limits are subject to a fee.

  3. EverBank is an FDIC insured federal savings association. The standard FDIC insurance amount of $250,000 is in effect through December 31, 2013. On January 1, 2014 the standard FDIC insurance amount will return to $100,000 per depositor for all account categories except IRAs and other certain retirement accounts, which will remain at $250,000 per depositor. FDIC insurance covers against loss due to the failure of the institution, but not market related fluctuations including changes in currency prices. Due to the nature and volatility of the foreign exchange market, the values of currencies are subject to wide fluctuations against the U.S. dollar and investments in foreign currency denominated instruments will entail significant risk exposure to adverse movements of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The amount of deposit insurance available for funds denominated in foreign currency will be determined and paid in the United States dollar equivalent of the foreign currency on the institution's date of default. As with all investments, you can lose money, including principal, due to currency fluctuations, over the term that you own it. Please only invest with money that you can afford to risk, and as part of a broadly diversified investment strategy.
