SD Treasurer’s Office Setting Up Unclaimed Property Booth

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — The South Dakota Treasurer’s office is expanding the outreach efforts of its unclaimed property program by setting up a booth at an upcoming Sioux Falls event.

State Treasurer Rich Sattgast says the Unclaimed Property Division will have a booth at the Benson’s Flea Market Saturday and Sunday at the W.H. Lyon Fairgrounds Expo Building.

Unclaimed property refers to accounts in financial institutions, businesses and government agencies that have had no activity for three years or longer.

The division currently has more than $280 million in unclaimed funds. The state holds the money in a custodial capacity until the money can be returned to the rightful owners.

Sattgast is encouraging people attending the market to stop by the booth to ensure they are not missing money.
