Utah-based TAB Bank raised the rates on its CDs yesterday, with the 6-month CD (1.61% APY) and 9-month CD (1.71% APY) being the most competitive. The minimum opening deposit is $1k, with no stated balance cap.
| APY | MIN | MAX | INSTITUTION | PRODUCT | DETAILS |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.87% | $1k | - | TAB Bank | 9 Month CD | |
| 1.87% | $1k | - | TAB Bank | 9 Month IRA CD (Traditional, Roth) | |
| 1.82% | $1k | - | TAB Bank | 6 Month CD | |
| 1.82% | $1k | - | TAB Bank | 6 Month IRA CD (Traditional, Roth) |
Following the addition of 31 bps, both the 6-month and 9-month CDs are earning their highest APYs since they were added to the product line.
All of the CDs are also available as IRAs (Traditional, Roth), earning the same APYs with the same funding requirements.
Although the rest of TAB Bank’s CDs don’t have such striking APYs, the new rates merit inclusion in the CD Rates Summary.
