Invest Now & Harvest the Savings Later with a Certificate of Deposit

Commonly referred to as a CD, a certificate of deposit is a special type of timed deposit account that offers a fixed interest rate for a fixed term. When you open a CD, you must keep your funds in the account for a specific period of time to avoid penalties. In exchange, you receive a higher interest rate than a regular savings account. Generally, customers get a better rate by selecting a longer savings period. A two-year CD will most likely have a higher interest rate than a six-month CD. Always read the Truth in Savings Act paperwork to get a clear picture of rates, terms, and conditions.

As you get closer to the end of your CD's term, Solvay Bank will remind you about the end date and whether the account renews automatically. Take the opportunity to explore new interest-bearing deposit account options and ask if there are any current promotions.
