5.65% 11-Month CD at a South Florida Bank (Ocean Bank)

Ocean Bank is offering a special 5.65% APY 11-month certificate of deposit. The minimum deposit is $2,500. A reader mentioned seeing this special advertised in yesterday's Sun-Sentinel newspaper. It doesn't seem to be listed on the website. I called for further details. I was told it's avaialble at all of its branches. There are no checking account requirements. It's also available as an IRA CD. It appears it does require a branch visit.
Branches are located in Miami-Dade and Broward County.
One interesting thing to note is this press release. Ocean Bank had to sign a FDIC Cease-and-Desist order. It doesn't seem to be related to subprime loans, but compliance with anti-money laundering laws. The bank has been FDIC insured since 1982 (Certificate # 24156).
Thanks to the reader who mentioned this CD in the finding deals post.

What Ocean Bank does not advertise is that they will not accept money for this cd rate in the form of revocable living trusts--the form in which most retirees want to open them
