That's not an exposure. You keep using technical terms in order to sound knowledgeable, but it's obvious that you don't know what they mean.

Yes, it is. If you have a deposit in a bank, you are a creditor of that bank. If the bank fails, you might not get that money back.

Also, maybe try to form an actual coherent argument, rather than continuing to claim I don't know what I'm talking about.

Sure, so you want to hedge against a bank run (even though bank deposits are insured)? I don't think you're making any sense but, anyway... what kind of hedging instrument do you intend to use against a bank run and why?
