CD’s
Certificates of Deposit are super savings accounts that pay a better interest rate than savings and money market accounts because you “lock in” the balance for a certain length of time. FCB offers a wide range of terms and rates that allow you to choose the best term to meet your lifestyle and savings goals.
Please speak to one of our friendly personal bankers for interest rates and terms.
