TD and Charles Schwab have agreed an amended Insured Deposit Account (IDA) Agreement. Schwab and TD have amended their existing deal to reflect the current market and interest rate environment. In comparison to the existing agreement, the revised agreement extends the term by three years to 1 July 2034. Specifically, it provides for lower deposit balances in its first six years and for higher balances in the latter years.

Until September 2025, the aggregate amount of fixed rate obligations will serve as the floor. Thereafter, the floor will be set at S$60bn up from $50bn in the existing agreement.
