Learn About Savings and Investment Accounts

Savings
When you deposit your money in a savings account the money goes to work for you earning interest.  

• This account can be accessed easily and is used for short-term or emergency savings.
• You may access this account through an ATM, online (if you also have a checking account with BankAnnapolis), through Telebank, or by visiting one of our branches.
• Save cash for vacations, emergencies, medical bills, or car and home repair.
• Transfer money in and out of your account into any other BankAnnapolis account.
• There is a limit to the number of transactions you may make with this account.*

Money Market Accounts

Money Market accounts are interest-bearing accounts that also give you the ability to write a limited number of checks. 

• This account can be accessed easily and is used for short-term or emergency savings.
• You may access this account by check, through an ATM, online (if you also have a checking account with BankAnnapolis), through Telebank, or by visiting one of our branches.
• Save cash for vacations, emergencies, medical bills, or car and home repair.
• There is usually a minimum balance required to earn interest.

Certificates of Deposit
CD’s traditionally allow you to earn a higher rate of interest than savings and money market accounts.  You may want to consider opening a CD if you have funds that you know you won’t need for a while. 

• Save long-term for school tuition, buying homes, cars, boats, or even retirement.
• Terms can range from 30 days to five years, and there is a penalty for withdrawing the funds before the term is up.
• There is a minimum amount needed to open a CD – some as low as $1,000 and others as high as $100,000 (jumbo CDs).

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)

IRAs are an investment vehicle for retirement.  Our IRAs are invested in FDIC-insured bank CDs or our Superior Savings IRA, so you know your money is safe. 

• Save long-term for retirement.
• Withdrawals are not permitted unless in connection with normal periodic distributions for account holders over 59½ years of age.
• Early withdrawal penalties will apply on IRA CD's.
• Terms can range from 12 to 48 months for CD's; there are no terms associated with our Superior Savings IRA.
• Minimum amounts to open an IRA CD can range from $500 to $10,000.  There is no minimum balance to open our Superior Savings IRA.

*Federal Banking Regulations restrict you to a combination of six (6) of the following types of transactions per statement cycle: checks, debit cards, or similar orders made payable to third parties, telephone transfers, online banking transfers, pre-authorized debits and transfers to another account with us. Over the counter withdrawals are unlimited.
