CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT
Our certificates of deposit pay competitive interest rates. For
your convenience, this account is represented by a receipt which
allows for renewals, reinvesting, and redemptions which can be handled
over the phone and through the mail.
• Minimum opening deposit - $10,000.00
• Maturity terms range from 30 Days to 5 Years.
• The fixed interest rate is determined by the term selected
and is paid for the entire term of the investment.
• Interest begins to accrue on the business day you make
deposits and we use the daily balance method to calculate the interest,
applying a periodic rate to the principal balance in the certificate
account each day using a 365 day basis.
• If interest compounding occurs during the term of the investment,
the annual percentage yield disclosed assumes interest will remain
on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal will reduce earnings.
For investments that WILL automatically renew at maturity, you
will have 10 calendar days after the maturity date to withdraw funds
without penalty.
For investments that WILL NOT automatically renew at maturity,
interest will not be paid after maturity.
Early Withdrawal Penalties for Certificates
The following penalty may be charged to your term investment if you
withdraw any principal before the maturity date. 1) For investments
with an original term of less than 60 days the penalty will be the
forfeiture of 30 days simple interest on the amount withdrawn.
2) For investments with an original term of 60 days to less than
3 months, the penalty will be the forfeiture of 60 days simple interest
on the amount withdrawn.
3) For investments with an original term of three months up to
1 year, the penalty will be the forfeiture of three months’
simple interest on the amount withdrawn.
4) For investments with an original term of more than one year,
the penalty will be the forfeiture of six months’ simple interest
on the amount withdrawn.
The amount of the penalty will be calculated using the higher rate
of: Current CD rate or new published rate. If sufficient interest
has not accrued at the time of withdrawal, the principal will be
reduced to the extent necessary to meet the required penalty.
Early withdrawals made because of the death or the judicially declared
incompetence of the account owner will not be penalized.
