    Frequently Asked Questions

    • Your earnings can be deposited into your Rivermark Business Checking, Savings or Money Market accounts, or mailed as a check. Maximize your return by reinvesting the earnings into another CD.
    • You can withdraw it, but you’ll pay a penalty equal to 90 or 180 days worth of interest, depending on the original term of your CD.
    • One way to maximize your interest income is with a strategy called CD laddering. Over time, it's an easy way to earn a higher rate without locking up all your money into a single long-term certificate.

      For example, instead of opening one 3-year CD for $15,000, you would divide your initial deposit into three equal CD's.

      1. Open one CD for $5,000 with a 3-year term
      2. Open a second CD for $5,000 with a 2-year term
      3. Open a third CD for $5,000 with a 1-year term

      When your 1-year CD matures, you would roll that $5,000 into a new 3-year certificate. After three years, all of your certificates will be earning the higher three-year rate of interest at that time and you'll always have access to $5,000 of your money within one year.
