Top 5-Year CD Rate at TDECU in the Houston Area - Local Only

POSTED ON BY

Texas Dow Employees Credit Union continues to offer a very competitive 5-year CD rate: 3.00% APY for a $1,000 minimum deposit and a 3.25% APY for a $100,000 minimum. These rates are listed at the credit union's rates page as of 8/19/2011.

When I last reported on this credit union in March, it also had some competitive 3-year and 4-year CD rates, but those rates, unlike the 5-year CD rate, have fallen.

Credit Union Membership

The only place on the credit union's website where I have found the membership eligibility requirements is in the first page of the online account application. At the bottom, you have to select your eligibility field of membership. Some of the options include areas near their branches. The reader pearlbrown mentioned in the comments that the credit union CSR said membership eligibility is now determined by the zip code and county where you live, work or worship. So if you live in the Houston metro area and you are interested in joining, you should contact the credit union.

Credit Union Overview

The credit union has an overall health score at DepositAccounts.com of 4 stars (out of 5) with a Texas Ratio of 15.31% (average) based on March 2011 data. It's a large credit union with $1.66 billion in assets and $1.30 billion in deposits. Please refer to our financial overview of Texas Dow Employees Credit Union for more details. The credit union is federally insured by the NCUA (Charter # 60705).

Texas Dow Employees Credit Union continues to offer some competitive CD rates. The short-term CD rates have gone down a little since my last report in November. However, the 5-year CD rate remains at 3.00% APY. Also, they continue to offer an additional 0.25% for Jumbo CDs with a $100K minimum. The standard CDs have a $1,000 minimum deposit. Some of the best standard CD rates as listed at the credit union's rates page as of 3/16/2011 include:

  • 3.00% APY 5-year CD

Texas Dow Employees Credit Union is offering several competitive CD rates. Another nice aspect is that Jumbo CDs earn a 0.25% APY above standard CD APY. A $100K deposit qualifies as a Jumbo. It seems like it's harder to find institutions rewarding Jumbo CDs by that much these days. The standard CDs have a $1,000 minimum deposit. Some of the best standard CD rates as listed at the credit union's rates page as of 11/19/2010 include:

  • 3.00% APY 5-year CD
  • 2.45% APY 4-year CD
  • 2.20% APY 3-year CD
  • 1.75% APY 2-year CD
  • 1.20% APY 1-year...
