Your deposits are still protected. Regardless of grade, FDIC insurance covers every dollar on deposit at Balboa Thrift and Loan Association up to $250,000 per depositor, per ownership category. A weak grade signals institutional financial stress for analysts, it is not a prediction of failure, and it does not affect insured-deposit safety.
