The Truth in Savings Act (TISA) was
contained in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement
Act of 1991. The purpose of TISA and its implementing regulation is
to assist consumers in comparing deposit accounts offered by
institutions, principally through the disclosure of fees, the
annual percentage yield (APY), and other account terms. TISA
requires depository institutions to disclose key terms for deposit
accounts at account opening, upon request, when certain changes in
terms occur, and in periodic statements. It also includes rules
about advertising for deposit accounts. TISA does not provide
exemptions from compliance for small institutions.
