Will my LISA receive Financial Services Protection above £85k

I’m wondering (and I’m a good few years away from being in this situation) but what happens when my LISA reaches £85k+? Will the entire amount be protected under the financial services protection or just the first £85k and therefore is it worth putting money into a second one whilst I’m still young enough to pay into a LISA each year?

    What type of LISA?
    There are three protection schemes that LISAs can fall under depending on type.
