Individual Retirement Accounts
Variable and fixed rate IRA certificates
are offered for fixed terms, compounded
daily, calculated on a 365/360 day
factor, and paid quarterly, with a
minimum opening balance of $25. The
interest rate and annual percentage
yield on the variable rate IRA account
may change weekly after the account is
opened. The rate is determined by
matching the current rate being offered
on the 12 month fixed rate IRA
certificate. There are no percentage
restrictions that the interest rate may
change.
The method of
calculating interest remains the same as
the fixed rate certificate. A statement
will be mailed at the end of June and
December each year. The maximum IRA
annual fee is $15.00 per IRA plan.
Credited interest may be withdrawn at
any time without penalty; a three month
loss of interest penalty will apply on
early withdrawals from the principal
amount, which may reduce earnings
(separate IRS early withdrawal penalties
may apply, however). Early withdrawal
penalties will not apply for anyone over
the age of 59 ½.
