Deposit Solutions
We offer a full range of deposit solutions that provide the right mix of safety, liquidity and a competitive rate of return. For your protection, all balances in these accounts that are in excess of FDIC insurance coverage are collateralized as required by state municipal banking regulations.
MuniRate Checking
Designed for municipal and state government entities, this account earns a competitive interest rate on your checking balances and centralizes transactions and investments in one place.
MuniRate Money Market Account
Like our MuniRate Checking, this account is designed for municipal and state government entities to provide market rates for your short-term cash while allowing you to maintain a high degree of liquidity. We offer attractive tiered balance rates that provide you with the flexibility to earn competitive yields on your idle cash balances.
Analyzed Checking
With Analyzed Checking, you pay only for the services you use, and your available balances generate earnings credits that may offset some or most of the fees associated with the account
Public Funds Certificates of Deposit (CD's)
CD's are ideal for investing surplus funds of $100,000 or more. Your funds have FDIC insurance up to applicable limits and are collateralized as required by municipal banking regulations. We offer a flexible choice of terms to suit your specific needs and competitive interest rates, based on maturities starting at seven days.
