6.17% 60-Month CD at a Washington State CU (Spokane City).

Spokane City Credit Union is still listing a 6.17% APY (6.00% interest rate) 60-month certificate. The minimum deposit is $25K, and the money must be new to the credit union. There's also still high rates for a 48-month CD of 5.90% APY and for a 36-month CD of 5.64% APY. Interest is compounded and credited monthly. I had first reported on this credit union and these rates in October.

The field of membership includes anyone who lives, works, worships or goes to school in the State of Washington. Even though it's available to all state residents, there's only one branch located in Spokane.

The credit union is NCUA insured. It has $24 million in assets and 4,379 members.

Thanks to the reader who mentioned this continuation of these rates.

[Edit 1/1/07: These rates are no longer listed at the credit union's website]
