Certificates of Deposit (CDs)
When it comes to offering our customers CDs, there are many ways that we can stand out from everybody else:
- We offer interest rates that are a bit higher than those offered by most other banks.
- We offer you the flexibility to put your money in a CD for the exact number of days you want. For example, suppose you know you have a sum of money that you will need in exactly
5 months. With a lot of banks, you’ll be able to get a CD for three of the five months, but for the other two months, you’ll have to be satisfied holding your money
in a money market account which pays a lower interest rate than the CD. At Murphy Bank, you can put your money in a CD for the full 5 months, which will let you earn
more interest.
- We offer Murphy Bank's personal touch, whether you talk with us on the phone or in person. While it's true that our personal touch won't do anything extra for your bank balance, you can
enjoy peace of mind when your questions are answered face to face. And at Murphy Bank, we think that matters.
Deposits are limited to California residents only. The U.S. Patriot Act requires proof of identity to open an account.
