Per account.

Edit: It seems I am incorrect.

> The standard deposit insurance coverage limit is $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. Deposits held in different ownership categories are separately insured, up to at least $250,000, even if held at the same bank.

Per account "type" and structure. For DDAs if you are married it will be:

You: $250k

Your+your wife: $250k

You POD your wife : $250k

Your wife: $250k

Your wife POD you: $250k

Demand Deposit Account - the kind of account that allows for cleared funds to be withdrawn without advanced notice. Probably 99.999% of accounts such as checking and savings one can write checks/do ACH payments/send wires/transfer money from fall into this category.

My understanding is that this might cause an unwelcome surprise to (for example) someone with a personal account at Bank A, and a sweep account at Brokerage P that sends its funds into accounts at Banks A, B, and C.
