S&T Bank (PA) Adds Competitive 24-Month Promotional CD

Just three weeks ago, Pennsylvania-based S&T Bank was offering a Leap Day 1-Year CD Special. Leap Day 2016 (and the one-day CD Special) are both merely memories now, but S&T Bank has added a 24-month CD Time Deposit Promotional (1.50% APY).

The minimum opening deposit is $1k of new money, with no balance cap. "New money" is defined in this instance as, "monies that have not been on deposit with S&T Bank in the past thirty days." This is a limited-time offer, but there is no mention of an end date. The fine print on the Promotion Page also states,

This promotion cannot be combined with any other offer and excludes
public funds, institutional investors or brokered accounts.

The 24-month CD Time Deposit Promotional is also available as an IRA (Traditional and Roth) earning the same APY, with the same funding requirements.

As stated in S&T Bank’s Deposit Account Agreement and Conditions, the Early Withdrawal Penalty reads as follows:

Terms greater than 12 months to less than or equal to 47 months - 6 months simple interest.

Over a 30-year period, the Bank acquired seven other banks, and in 1975 the Bank’s name was changed to The Savings & Trust Company of Pennsylvania.
