With interest rates rapidly increasing and ongoing inflation, it might be the perfect time to look into ways to increase your funds and build your savings. One convenient way might be a share certificate. What is a share certificate and what are the benefits? Let’s take a look.
What is a Share Certificate?
A share certificate allows you to earn a much higher interest rate by agreeing to leave money in your credit union for a specified amount of time. Share certificates offer fixed-rate guaranteed growth, with no stocks to watch, and are a fully secured way to get the most from your money. Because you’re earning great interest rates, with a share certificate there are penalties on earnings for early withdrawal. The longer you keep your money in the account, the more it grows.
What are the Benefits of a Share Certificate?
A share certificate offers a simple option to build your money. Simply pick the amount of time you’re willing to deposit your funds, and you’re on your way. You receive a guaranteed, fixed-rate growth backed with federal insurance. Use a share certificate to diversify your investments or to save for a special event or purchase you’ve been dreaming of in the future.
Some of the benefits of a share certificate with Camino include:
- Greater dividends than regular savings
- Fixed rates guaranteed for the length of the term
- Terms from 6 months to 5 years
