FSCS Query

Hi
My partner and I both have accounts with the Coventry BS. Is the £85k FSCS coverage for both accounts separately ie are we both covered for £85k?
I know that it doubles if we have a joint account, but we aren't going to go down that route for numerous reasons. Just checking before I start to move our NS&I savings
Cheers

The £85K limit is per person per institution, so if you and your partner both have sole accounts with the same institution then each is protected up to that limit.0
