SBIC Personal CD

Grow Your Savings with a Personal Certificate of Deposit

SBIC Bank offers personal certificates of deposit with competitive fixed rates, terms from 3 months to 5 years, and a $1,000 minimum deposit. Unlike a savings account, a CD locks in your rate for the full term, with no market risk, no fluctuation, just predictable growth.

A Certificate of Deposit (CD) is a low-risk savings option that allows individuals to earn a fixed interest rate on their funds over a set term. Unlike traditional savings accounts, Personal CDs require you to lock in your funds for a predetermined period, providing predictable returns and steady growth.

This makes them an excellent choice for individuals looking to maximize idle cash while maintaining a secure and reliable way to save. With a range of term lengths available, you can choose a CD that aligns with your financial goals, whether you’re saving for a major purchase, an emergency fund, or long-term financial stability.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About CD Accounts and Rates

Most CD interest rates are fixed for the duration of their term, meaning your earnings are predictable. However, some institutions may offer variable CD rates online that can fluctuate based on market conditions or benchmarks like the prime rate, potentially offering higher returns if rates rise. So, it's essential to understand the type of CD you are investing in.

Yes, you can, but early withdrawals typically result in a penalty. Withdrawing before the maturity date may result in users forfeiting a portion of the CD interest rate earned and, in some cases, part of the principal. The specific penalty varies by institution and CD's term length.

CD interest rates are calculated based on your deposit amount, term length and the bank’s CD account rates. The longer the term and higher the amount, the better your potential to earn from current CD rates.

A certificate of deposit (CD) is a fixed-term deposit account that earns interest at a predetermined rate. It’s ideal for savers looking for stable returns through locked CD interest rates over a chosen time frame.

The minimum deposit requirements for personal CDs vary based on the term and rate selected. Check our website or visit a branch to find the best CDs with the right deposit requirements for you.

Any U.S. resident with a valid ID can open a CD savings account. SBIC Bank makes it simple to start growing your savings with our available CDs.

*APY refers to Annual Percentage Yield and assumes interest remains on deposit until maturity. APY is accurate as of 2/26/2026. Rates are fixed for the term of the CD. You must deposit and maintain a daily balance of $1,000 to obtain this APY. Interest is compounded and credited to your account quarterly. Interest begins to accrue no later than the business day we receive the credit. CD rates are subject to change at any time and are not guaranteed until CD is opened. A penalty may be imposed for early withdrawal. Fees could reduce earnings on the account.
