There is no need for depositors to apply for the FDIC insurance coverage or even to request it. Coverage is automatic for a deposit in a member bank. FDIC insurance covers funds in deposit accounts, including checking and savings accounts, money market deposit accounts and certificates of deposit (CDs).
