The interest rate on this deposit is equal to the discount rate of the new 6-month Treasury bill plus ¼%. The discount rate of the 6-month Treasury bill is determined by the weekly auction of the Federal Reserve. To this extent, the interest rate and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) earned on this deposit are subject to change weekly and may be deemed variable rates. Fluctuations in the discount rate of the 6-month Treasury bill could cause an interest rate and APY in a subsequent week to be less than the interest rate and APY in an earlier week. Fees could reduce earnings on the account. For more information see Pricing Schedule. This deposit is not available for Roth IRA or Coverdell Education Savings Accounts.
Additional deposits are permitted during the 18-month term, with a minimum of $50.
Minimum opening deposit amount of $250.
