Common Features
The Certificates of Deposit at The Garnavillo Savings Bank will be started with a minimum deposit of $500.00 for terms of 12, 18, 24, 30, 36 and 48 months, and $1,000.00 for the 3 month and 6 month certificates. Additional deposits are not allowed until maturity. Withdrawals from your account may not be made until the maturity date without our consent. Interest rates are calculated on a 365/366 day year. Interest rates are fixed for the entire term of the instrument.

Although as a normal banking practice we give you credit for noncash items (checks) on the same business day as you deposit them, and pay interest from that day as well, we reserve the right to delay credit beyond the first business day. If credit is delayed for any reason you will receive notice at the time of deposit. Tiered interest rates are paid on the entire collected balance of your account. The balance tiers are:

3 month $1,000 and over
6 month 1,000 to 19,999.99
20,000 and over
12 & 18 month 500 to 4,999.99
5,000 and over
24,30,36 & 48 month 500 to 2,499.99
2,500 to 19,999.99
20,000 and over

Early Withdrawal Penalty
The following penalty may be charged to your certificate of deposit if you withdraw any principal amount before the maturity date. There will be no partial withdrawal allowed.

The penalty will be forfeiture of three months simple interest on Certificates of Deposit with maturity of less than one year and six months interest on Certificates of Deposit of a year or more.

If sufficient interest has not accrued at the time of withdrawal, principal will be reduced to the extent necessary to meet the required penalty.

The amount of penalty will be calculated using the interest rate in effect on your account at the time of your withdrawal.

Early withdrawals made because of death or judicially declared incompetence of a depositor will not be penalized.

Other Disclosures That Apply To Your Certificate of Deposit
Interest normally begins to accrue on the business day you deposit noncash items (checks). We use the daily balance method to calculate the interest on your certificate of deposit. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the certificate of deposit each day.

Interest compounding accrues at the date of interest payment if the compounding method of interest payment is selected. If interest payment occurs during the term of the certificate of deposit, the annual percentage yield disclosed assumes that the interest will remain on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal of the interest will reduce the earnings.

For certificates of deposit that will automatically renew at maturity you will have 10 calendar days after the maturity date to withdraw funds without penalty. For certificates of deposit that will not automatically renew, interest will not be paid after maturity.

Certificates of deposit as shown above may be purchased for various terms.
