Maximize your coverage
The maximum protection for eligible deposits at Tangerine is $100,000 per name registration (principal and interest combined).
In addition, CDIC provides separate insurance protection for joint deposits ($100,000 collectively, not per individual), deposits held in RRSPs ($100,000, principal and interest combined) and TFSA deposits ($100,000, principal and interest combined).
To keep things simple, below are some examples of how multiple Account registrations can help maximize your coverage:

Single registration Accounts are eligible for CDIC insurance up to $100,000. Note that Jane's RSP Savings Account counts towards another $100,000 in coverage and her TFSA Account is also covered for $100,000. All of Jane's Accounts are insured with CDIC in this example.

All amounts include principal and interest.
