Certificate of Deposits (CDs)

Investors who are searching for relatively low-risk investments that can be easily converted into cash often invest in certificates of deposits (CDs). CDs typically pay higher interest than regular savings accounts.

Arizona Business Bank offers a variety of convenient terms with competitive rates.

Minimum deposit of $1,000
Terms from seven days to 60 months
Early withdrawal penalties do apply should the CD be redeemed prior to maturity
