This is followed closely by ease of use for the web site or mobile app for investment or trading accounts (11%) and savings rates for bank or credit union accounts (13%).

Account Privacy & Security Perceptions

Knowing they are protected against fraud (92%) and their data will never be shared (91%) is most important to Americans when opening an account with a new financial institution. And their perception of money security is mainly driven by knowing the majority of their deposits are FDIC insured (48%).
