3.20% 24-Month & 2.71% 12-Month CD at Wheatland Bank in Illinois
CommentsPost a Comment
Wheatland Bank is offering a few competitive CD rates. The most competitive are the 12-month CD with a 2.71% APY and the 2-year CD with a 3.20% APY. Terms over 2-years also have a 3.20% APY. Minimum deposit is $2,500. Rates apply to personal, business and IRA CDs. These rates are listed at the bank's rate table as of the morning of 5/05/09.
The bank also has a decent rate on its money market account. It's currently 2.00% APY for balances over $2,500. When I last posted on this bank in September 2008, the rate was 3.44% APY. So it has some history of competitive rates.
It appears a branch visit is required to open accounts. The bank is located in Naperville, IL which is in the Chicago metropolitan area.
It's a fairly new bank that was just established in 2007. Consequently, it doesn't have a rating at BauerFinancial. Bankrate gives the bank 3 stars (performing) in its Safe & Sound ratings. This is based on 12/31/08 financial data. The bank is FDIC insured (FDIC Certificate # 58429).
