As Jacksonville's oldest banking institution, First Guaranty is built on a solid foundation of time-tested, sound financial policies. We are well capitalized and FDIC insured. And because we are a privately owned, home town bank, we not only know our business, we know you by name.

First Guaranty Bank is participating in the FDIC's Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under that program, through June 30, 2010, all non interest-bearing* transaction accounts are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account. Coverage under the Transaction Account Guarantee Program is in addition to and separate from coverage available under the FDIC's general deposit insurance rules.
*Also included in the program are the following interest-bearing checking account products: Interest Checking (with and without Guaranty Options), Loyalty Checking Plus, the NOW account and the IOTA account (Interest on Lawyers Trust Account)
