How These CD Rates Compare
If you live in New York City and are looking for the best CD rates, you may want to see if you can join one of the NYC credit unions that offer top CD rates. The highest CD rates are offered by Self Reliance New York FCU. This credit union is one of the very few that still lists a CD with 3.00% rate (3.05% APY 5-year CD). As you can read in the comments of my last Self Reliance post, membership into this credit union isn't easy. Top CD rates are also available in NYC at LOMTO FCU and Greater Metro FCU, but these also have limited membership eligibility.
The best 5-year CD rate that's nationally available is 2.60% APY at Digital Credit Union. This requires a $25K minimum deposit and Relationship Checking. Without this relationship (which is difficult to get), the rate is 2.35% APY for a $25K minimum and 2.25% APY for a $500 minimum deposit.
The best nationally available 5-year CD rate at a bank is 2.00% APY (59-month CD special) at US Bank.
These rates are accurate as of 2/8/2012.
