Mountain America Credit Union Currently Offering 5-Year CD With One of the Highest APYs in the Country


WEST JORDAN, UT--(Marketwired - September 17, 2015) - Mountain America Credit Union is currently offering a 5-year term deposit (CD) with one of the highest annual percentage yields (APY)s in the country.

"One of the many ways we go above and beyond for our members is to offer competitive rates. Right now we're pleased to offer a 2.30% APY on our 5-year CD, which is one of the highest rates in the country," says Chad Curtis, chief financial officer for Mountain America. "Member service takes many forms here at Mountain America, and we're pleased to offer this high rate as part of our suite of services and products."

This higher yielding term deposit has a "bump" feature, which allows accountholders a one-time option to "bump" up their rate if a better one becomes available. Five-year CDs typically offer higher interest rates than savings accounts and a guaranteed return of principal (assuming no early withdrawals are made).

Consumers interested in opening an account should visit Mountain America online at www.macu.com or stop into a local branch.
