Your rate is indexed to the Wall Street Journal 3 Month Treasury rate plus a 0.50% margin. As this index rate moves, so does the rate on your CD.

Amboy Direct-Great Experience!

I have nothing but good things to say about Amboy Direct. Everyone that I have dealt with has been wonderful and very helpful. I have also tried some other internet banks and Amboy is by far the best. The way Amboy Direct is set up is perfect for the way I like to bank. There is never any hassle and if there are small problems they are solved right away.

Excited About 2 Yr 5.80% CD Until ...

Posted by: |

I noticed it was indexed ... 3 Month Treasury Rate + 0.50%.
3M treasury trajectory tracks the Fed funds rate. The Fed is likely to start cutting by early next year. So that 5.80% will likely be below 4.80% after the 2 years. Sneaky.

Unbelievable

Posted by: |

Just want to alert other customers to the fact that this bank only allows linkage to one external account and it has to be from inside. You cannot have a link at an external account. They won't even disclose their routing number. When I found out, I immediately cancelled/withdrew my application. Had never heard anything like that. Unacceptable.
