• RETAIL REPOS
  
  repurchase agreements in which a thrift institution or bank sells a portion of a government security to its customer for cash, and simultaneously agrees to buy back the security for the same price plus interest at a future specified date. Such transactions are considered to be investments, not deposits, and thus are not federally insured. See repurchase agreement.
