>The fractional reserve system basically means if there is a problem, you need to be the first at the counter. If you are not, you will only get a certain amount of money back. In any system with deposit or investor insurance, e.g. the United States, you will get back the full insured amount (up to $250 000 for bank deposits, $500 000 for investor funds). Beyond that you will be treated as the senior creditor that, as a depositor or investor, you are. If you want more certainty as to the return of your capital, buy Treasuries. |
