The Supreme Court of Missouri has amended the Rules of Professional Conduct 4-1.15 to require Missouri lawyers to place IOLTA accounts only at eligible financial institutions. Eligible financial institutions are those institutions that pay interest rates on IOLTA accounts comparable to rates paid on similarly profiled non-IOLTA accounts, and that meet other requirements of the Rule.

The institutions noted below are preferred providers and are recognized as “Partners in Justice” due to their voluntary agreement to pay trust account interest rates that equal or exceed seventy percent (70%) of the Federal Funds Target Interest Rate.
