Investor Money Market Deposit AccountIf you are looking for an account with a higher interest rate than a checking account, yet is more liquid than a CD, then our Investors Money Market just may be the account for which you are looking. Interest is compounded monthly and the interest rates are dependent upon the balance in the account. The interest rates in the Investors Money Market are decidedly higher than in regular checking accounts. This account still allows you to write checks (three per statement cycle) and transfer funds to other accounts (six per statement cycle). If you maintain a balance of at least $2,500 throughout the statement cycle, you can avoid a $3.00 monthly fee. Health Savings AccountA Health Savings Account (HSA) is an account that you can put money into to save for future medical expenses. There are certain advantages to putting money into these accounts, including favorable tax treatment. Contributions to your HSA can be made by you, your employer, or both. You must also have coverage under an HSA-qualified “high deductible health plan” (HDHP). Your interest rate and annual percentage yield (APY) may change daily, at our discretion. Interest begins to accrue on the day after the date of your deposit and is compounded and credited on the last day of your statement cycle. If you close your account before interest is credited, accrued interest will be paid. We use the daily balance method to calculate the interest on your account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day. There is a $3.00 a month service charge on this account. Certificates of Deposits/IRAsWe offer a myriad of Certificates with terms to meet your needs. You may open a Certificate with as little as $500. Interest is compounded and credited to your account semi-annually (Certificates less than 1 year receive no compounding). The account will automatically renew at maturity (except Jumbo Certificates). You will have 10 calendar days from the maturity date to withdraw your funds without being assessed a penalty. After the account is opened, you may not make withdrawals or deposits until the maturity date without a penalty. The Annual Percentage Yield (APY) assumes interest remains on deposit until maturity and that a withdrawal will reduce earnings. If your term is a year or less, you will receive a 3-month loss of interest. If it is longer than one year, you will receive a 6-month loss of interest.
