Certificates of Deposit (CDs)

A share certificate guarantees you a higher yield than your average savings account.  You can begin your investing with as little as $1,000 in a term as short as 6 months.  Interest is compounded daily and applied monthly.  Click here to view current rates.

 

Need access to your funds prior to maturity?  Avoid paying early withdraw penalties!  Instead, you have the option to use your certificate as collateral and borrow against it.  For more details, please refer to our Share Secured loan.

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)

You can start saving for college, retirement or a home with an IRA.  We have many types of tax-advantage IRA savings available, including contributory, spousal and rollover.  Plus, your IRA will work for you as it accrues dividends paid quarterly.  Opening one is as easy as opening a share account.

 

The annual contribution limit for individuals under the age of 50 is $5,000.  Individuals 50 and over should consult their tax advisor regarding the annual contribution limits.  IRA benefits are paid anytime after the age of 59 1/2 but must start before 70 1/2, upon permanent disability or upon death (to named beneficiaries).  You may elect to receive your benefits in a lump sum or scheduled intervals.  Withdrawals made prior to age 59 1/2 may be subject to a tax penalty and/or federal income tax withholding.
