I taught it is 250K per entity per bank.
As far as I knew, split to many account, won't entitle for the more coverage, aka you open 4 account with Bank A, you only entitled for 250k total.
You want 500K coverage then need to open account with Bank B.

Another way I think is to split into Conventional and Islamic deposit accounts
the website said it's separate deposit insurance protection for that

Joint account with diff acct holders are counted as a separate account in the same bank. Meaning if I have CASA and FD accounts, that count as RM250k protection. But if in the same bank, I have another joint account with another person, then I have another RM250k protection.
Is my above interpretation correct ?
Per below from PIDM website:
Joint accounts - Joint accounts enjoy separate deposit insurance protection provided the records of the member bank disclose the names of the joint account holders
