File US Postal Savings System 5.jpg thumb A certificate of a 5 deposit in the UnitedStates Postal Savings System issued on September 10th, 1932 The UnitedStates Postal Savings System was a postal savings system operated by the UnitedStates Postal Service from January 1, 1911 until July 1, 1967. The system paid depositors 2 percent annual interest. Depositors in the system were initially limited to hold a balance of 500, but this was raised to 1,000 in 1916 and to 2,500 in 1918. At its peak in 1947, the system held almost 3.4 billion in deposits. The system originally had a natural advantage over deposit taking private banks because the deposits were always backed by the full faith and credit of the UnitedStates Government. However, because the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation gave the same guarantee to depositors in private banks, the Postal Savings System lost its natural advantage in trust. Locations On March 1911 March 26, 1911 , the locations of the central depositories for the first 19 states were established, followed the next day by 25 others. The post offices were selected by merit rather than geography, based on those with the best efficiency record in the state.
