1. APY (Annual Percentage Yield) assumes interest remains on deposit until maturity. Minimum opening deposit is $1,000. The interest rate on a Certificate of Deposit is fixed. The dividend/interest period will begin on the first calendar of the period and end on the last day of the period. Interest will be credited real time at funding and deposited into your choice of account (checking/savings). A penalty may be imposed for early withdrawals. The penalty will be assessed against the principal due to the upfront payment of the interest. Certificates of deposit renew automatically unless instructed by the depositor. Fees could reduce earning. Advertised CD rates are subject to change at any time and are not guaranteed until the CD is opened. Some expectations may apply. A copy of the Truth in Savings Disclosure will be provided to you before you open your account or is available at any time upon request from a teller. Must meet membership and age requirements.
