First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company and its CIT Bank division are the same FDIC-Insured Institution. Deposits held under each name are not separately insured but are combined to determine whether a depositor has exceeded the $250,000 federal insurance deposit limit, per depositor for each ownership category. For purposes of calculating aggregate deposits, you should include deposits held in First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company and CIT Bank.

OneWest Bank, a California based institution, offers good sign-up bonuses every now and again, which we”ll keep updated here. Offers in the past have been for $150 to $600 cash bonuses.

OneWest Bank is CIT’s southern California bank division. Headquartered in Pasadena, CA and established in 2009, OneWest Bank offers Checking, Savings, Money Market and CD accounts to customers in the Southern California area.
