6.00% 5-Month CD at a New Jersey Bank (Valley National) - Update

Jun 4, 2007 - 8:35 AM by Ken Tumin

Valley National Bank
Valley National Bank is offering a special 6% APY 5-month certificate of deposit. It requires a checking account with direct deposit. A yield of 5.50% APY is available without this. The maximum deposit on the 6% CD is $250K, and the maximum deposit for the 5.50% CD is $500K. It doesn't seem to listed at the bank's website. It was advertised in a New Jersey newspaper. The ad is available online here.

The special CD is only available at the bank's 3 new branches at Keyport, Highlands and Keansburg, New Jersey.

The bank is also offering a $150 checking account bonus (see post) which is available at all of their New Jersey and New York branches.

The bank is FDIC insured (FDIC Certificate # 9396).

Looks like Valley National is busy adding new branches (perhaps too busy). A reader in the last post mentioned this news article on an incident related to the CEO and predawn construction of their Chelsea branch.

also available in Manhattan in Franklin Street Branch, Hudson Street and 88th Street. You need to open a direct deposit checking account to get the full 6% CD, if you don't have direct deposit, it would be about 5.5% CD.

They also have a 5% money market for 5000 minimum
