8.1.2 Allocation of Deposit Insurance

As part of the Run execution, the application allocates the deposit insurance to accounts based on the guidelines specified by the SDIC Deposit Insurance. The insurance limit captured against each deposit insurance scheme is allocated to the insurance eligible accounts under that scheme based on the ownership category and the depositor combination.

The insurance limit, that is the maximum deposit balance covered by an insurance scheme per customer, is captured against each insurance scheme – ownership category combination. Customers having an account in multiple legal entities get a separate deposit insurance limit per legal entity. For the SDIC Deposit Insurance scheme, the limit amount should be provided in Stage Insurance Scheme Master table at the granularity of Insurance Scheme.

The insurance limit is allocated to accounts as follows:
  1. The application identifies the established relationship flag at a customer level.
  2. The accounts are sorted by the specified product type prioritizations.
  3. The insurance allocation is done based on the principal balance from the highest to the least, in the order of product type prioritization.
  4. The insurance limit available, is allocated to account 1 to n – 1 as per the formula given below:

Where, Insurance Limit Available : Limit available post allocation to previous accounts = Insurance Limit Available n-1 – Insured Amount x-1

x: Number of accounts up to the current account to which insured amount is to be allocated

n: Total number of accounts of a customer which are eligible for insurance coverage under a given ownership category

The remaining available insurance is allocated to the last account such an Account N, for which insurance was not allocated. If the insurance limit is available after allocating to the principal balances, it is allocated to the accrued interest from the highest to the least in the order of Product Type prioritization. This procedure is illustrated in the following table, considering an insurance limit of 50,000 Singapore Dollar (SGD) for each depositor combination under each ownership category for each legal entity follows:

Note:

  • For Single, Joint and Sole proprietorship category, insurance limit is aggregated for each customer per legal entity.
  • Each account holder in joint ownership category has equal share for insurance calculation until specifically provided by the legal entity.
  • Trusts with distinct account number are treated separately. Trust accounts are insured on a per account –beneficiary basis without aggregation.
  • Client accounts with distinct account number are treated separately. Client accounts are insured on a per account basis without aggregation.

The inputs to this calculation, including account details and customer details are provided in the following table:
