There are more than 30,000,000 unredeemed Savings Bonds dating back
to the 1940’s
that have reached final maturity, totaling
approximately $13 billion in unclaimed
assets. Legislation has been introduced
that establishes a system for returning
this property back to its rightful owners.

addresses, deliver bond records to the correct
states, and locate owners.
