Certificates of Deposit FAQ

What does CD stand for?
CD is short for a “Certificate of Deposit,” a low-risk, fixed-rate investment.

Are CDs a good investment?
Certificates of Deposit (CDs) can be an excellent savings option for anyone wanting stability and guaranteed growth. Certificates of Deposit, or CDs, are a low-risk investment and are insured up to $250,000 by the NCUA. CDs also offer higher returns than traditional savings accounts, with a predictable return that is agreed upon at the opening of the Certificate of Deposit. CDs also have various terms ranging from 3 months to 5 years, allowing you to decide how long you want your money to accrue interest.

Can I lose my money on a CD?
Certificates of Deposits are backed by the National Credit Union Administration, a Federal agency. The standard insured amount is $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank or credit union, for each account category.

Are there any minimum or maximum opening amounts for Business CDs?

The minimum balance to open and maintain a standard TDECU Certificate of Deposit is $1,000. There is no maximum for a CD, but the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) will insure up to a maximum of $250,000.

What is a 'term', and when will my CD mature?
Term is the length of time of an investment. TDECU CDs range in term length from 3 months to 60 months. Your Certificate of Deposit will mature at the end of your selected fixed term. For example, if you choose a 3-month term, it would mature at the end of those 3 months, or a 60-month term would mature in 60 months.

What can you do with your CD once it matures?

You have three options when a Certificate of Deposit (CD) matures:

  • Allow the CD to auto-renew at the current rate and term length.
  • Roll your CD balance into a new CD and select a different rate and term length. You should consider if a longer- or shorter-term length may be a better option, depending on your investment strategy.
  • Withdraw your ending balance. If a CD is no longer part of your investment strategy, it may be worth withdrawing and placing the money in a different account or investment type.
Refer to your original CD Agreement for additional terms & conditions.

Can I cash in a CD before it matures?
Although it is NOT recommended you may withdraw your deposit before the maturity date; BUT you will incur an early withdrawal penalty. Typically, your agreement states that you agree to maintain your CD deposit for a specified term. For doing so, TDECU pays interest on your deposit. Refer to TDECU's Member Handbook & Truth in Savings brochures for additional terms and conditions.
