The Companion Account rate is variable. Dividends are compounded and paid monthly. The Companion Savings account is linked to a regular savings, money market, or certificate account. For Companion Savings accounts linked to a regular savings or money market, dividends will be calculated based on the average daily balance of the linked savings or money market for the previous month since there is a fluctuating balance due to deposits and withdrawals. For a Companion Savings linked to a certificate account, dividends are calculated by the daily balance method which applies a daily periodic rate to the balance in the account each day. Once a Certificate is opened, the rate remains fixed through maturity, and early withdrawal penalties apply and may reduce earnings. Membership eligibility is required.
