Comments (1)Post a Comment
Century Bank Direct is offering some very competitive CD rates. The following are the rates as listed at the bank's CD rates page as of 11/05/09:
The bank also offers online checking, savings and money market accounts. Those rates are currently not as competitive as the CD rates. Refer to my Century Bank Direct review for more details about these accounts.
Century Bank Direct is a division of Century Bank of Kentucky which is FDIC insured (Certificate # 35450). It's a small bank with only 37 employees, $116.9 million in assets and $100.3 million in deposits based on 6/30/09 data.
The bank's ratings for safety and soundness are a little weak: 2 stars (problematic) at BauerFinancial and 2 stars (below peer group) at Bankrate.com. Both rates are based on 6/30/09 financial data.
Thanks to the reader who mentioned these CD rates in the Bank Deals hub page.
