Certificate Laddering

Would you like to earn an attractive rate on your money?

Try Certificate Laddering!

Certificate laddering gives you the opportunity to invest your money in a way that will give you a high level of flexibility, peace of mind and reduce interest rate risk, while earning an attractive return. This laddering strategy involves opening multiple certificates at one time, but with different maturity dates, giving you access to some of your money within a relatively short time frame.

At maturity, you reinvest into new certificates. Here’s how it works: Assume you have $10,000 in your savings or account or at another financial institution.   

Term Starting Amount Open Date Maturity Date
6-month $2,500 11/1/2008 5/1/2009
12-month $2,500 11/1/2008 11/1/2009
24-month $2,500 11/1/2008 11/1/2010
36-month $2,500 11/1/2008 11/1/2011

 

This cycle gives you frequent access to your funds without having to settle for less attractive yields or risk an interest penalty for early withdrawal.
