Other Eligible Financial Institutions

Eligible Institutions are financial institutions that meet the standards of the eligibility requirement as defined by IOLTA Rule 412. These banks strengthen the IOLTA Program, thereby generating more funds to advance justice.

 

If you would like to open an IOLTA account at a bank not on this list, please ask that bank’s personnel to contact us so that they may become an eligible IOLTA bank.
