6% 60-Month / 5.75% 36-Month CD at a Florida Bank

May 25, 2006 - 8:23 AM by Ken Tumin

First State Bank has high yields on its long-term certificates of deposit. These include a 6% APY 5-year CD with a $25K minimum (5.90% APY available for a $1K minimum) and a 5.75% APY 3-year CD with a $1K minimum. These rates and terms are also available for individual retirement accounts. I first reported on this bank last January. They've continued to keep very competitive rates. Below is a list of their rates and how they've changed:

Term Old APY New APY
---------- ------- -------
6 months 4.00% 4.75%
1 year 4.50% 5.25%
15 months 4.78% 4.78%
18 months 4.75% 5.35%
2 years 4.80% 5.50%
25 months 5.03% 5.03%
3 years 5.00% 5.75%
4 years 5.10% 5.90%
5 years 5.25% 5.90%

The bank has six branches in the Florida cities of Sarasota, Seminole and St. Petersburg.
