Truth-in-Savings Account Disclosures:

  • Rate Information - The Divided Rate and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) on your accounts are stated in the Rate and Fee Schedule. The APY is a percentage rate that reflects the total amount of dividends to be paid on an account based on the dividend rate and frequency of compounding for an annual period. The Dividend Rate and APY may change monthly as determined by the Board of Directors. <back to top>
  • Nature of Dividends - Dividends are paid from current income and available earnings after required transfers to reserves at the end of the dividend period. The Dividend Rate and APY are the prospective rates and yields that the Credit Union anticipates paying for the applicable dividend period. <back to top>
  • Compounding and Crediting - Dividends will be compounded and credited as stated in the Rate and Fee Schedule. The Dividend Period for all accounts is monthly beginning on the first calendar day of the month and ending on the last calendar day of the month. <back to top>
  • Accrual of Dividends - Dividends will begin to accrue on cash and non-cash deposits (e.g. checks) on the business day you make the deposit to your account. <back to top>
  • Balance Information - The minimum balance required to open each account is stated in the Rate and Fee Schedule. For accounts using the average daily balance method, dividends are calculated by applying a periodic rate to the average daily balance in the account for the period. The average daily balance is determined by adding the full amount of principal in the account for each day of the period and dividing that figure by the number of days in the period. If the minimum average balance is not met, you will not ear the stated APY. <back to top>
  • Account Limitations - For Christmas Club accounts, the entire balance will be paid to you by transfer to another account of yours during October of each year and the account will remain open. For share accounts, no more than six (6) pre-authorized automatic, or telephone transfers may be made from your share account to another account of yours or to a third party in any month, and no more than (3) of these six (6) transfers may be made by check, draft or debit card to a third party. If you exceed these limitations, your account will be subject to a fee of $1.00 per transfer for each transfer that exceeds three (3) in one month. <back to top>
