False.

Non-depository institutions (brokerage firms, mutual funds, insurance companies, etc.) generally do not have government deposit insurance like the FDIC/NCUA. Some protections exist (e.g., SIPC for broker-dealers) but they are limited and not the same as government deposit insurance, so accounts there are not "almost always" government-insured.
