BANK DEPOSITS BANK DEPOSITS
Bank deposits include money market and savings accounts, interest-bearing demand deposits, which include Negotiable Order of Withdrawal accounts, certificates of deposit, and non-interest-bearing demand deposits held by our bank subsidiaries. The following table presents a summary of bank deposits, excluding affiliate deposits, as well as the weighted-average interest rates on such deposits. The calculation of the weighted-average rates was based on the actual deposit balances and rates at each respective period end.

Total bank deposits included $29.83 billion and $26.56 billion as of March 31, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, of cash balances which were swept to our Bank segment from the client investment accounts maintained at Raymond James & Associates, Inc. (“RJ&A”). Such deposits are held in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)-insured bank accounts through the Raymond James Bank Deposit Program (“RJBDP”), and substantially all of these deposits were included in money market and savings accounts in the preceding table. Interest-bearing demand deposits in the preceding table included $12.49 billion and $13.47 billion of deposits as of March 31, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, associated with our Enhanced Savings Program (“ESP”), in which clients, substantially all within our Private Client Group, deposit cash in a high-yield Raymond James Bank account.

The following table details the amount of total bank deposits (which excluded affiliate deposits) that are FDIC-insured, as well as the amount that exceeded the FDIC insurance limit at each respective period end.

During the six months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we used an interest rate swap to manage the risk of increases in interest rates associated with certain money market and savings accounts by converting the balances subject to variable interest rates to a fixed interest rate. This interest rate swap matured during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and was not renewed. See Note 2 of our 2025 Form 10-K for information regarding this interest rate swap, which was designated and accounted for as a cash flow hedge.
