An Interchange service that allows member banks participating in the
service to offer their customers multiple certificates of deposit
("Multi-CDs") so that large deposits exceeding an applicable Federal
deposit insurance limit (e.g., $100,000) are fully insured. The
Interchange partitions each of the large deposits into a plurality of
deposit portions that do not exceed the Federal deposit insurance limit.
The deposit portions are assigned to the member banks so that, for each
member bank, the difference between funds flowing out of and into each
member bank is minimized or eliminated. Differences in deposit terms
offered by each of the member banks are monetized and resolved through
the calculation and payment of present value payments, which are
transferred between member banks that have different sets of deposit
terms.
