Not only will you benefit from a competitive dividend, but unlike certificates that are locked into a specific number of years, you’ll have full access to your money whenever you need it with limited withdrawal penalties. In addition to liquidity, money markets are the perfect low-risk investment opportunity for anyone looking to grow their emergency funds, save for short and long-term goals, or plan for significant life events.
*APY = Annual Percentage Yield.
Beacon’s Premier Money Market rate is only valid on new accounts for members who have not had an open consumer or business money market within the past 90 days. There is a $100 minimum deposit required to open the account and the account cannot be funded with deposit money that is already in a Beacon deposit account. Dividends are calculated and applied based on the highest dividend tier applicable to your daily average balance as of the last day of the monthly dividend period.
