CD (Certificate of Deposit) RatesH&R Block Bank leads our latest rankings of the best, 6-month CD rates.
The tax preparation company’s online bank is paying 2.0% APY on a 6-month CD with a $10,000 minimum deposit.
This special was scheduled to end Sept. 30, but has been extended for a few days and accounts can still be opened online.
It matches the best nationally-available rate that United Central Bank offered from July through early September, when it cut the yield in half.
Indeed, rates on the top-paying 6-month CDs have held their own even over the past few months, even though the average rate has fallen from 0.85% APY on July 1 to 0.62% APY.
The other top 6-month CD rates in our October rankings are:
1.80% APY with an $500 minimum deposit from Country Bank, with 14 locations in the Ware, Mass. area. Country Bank CDs must be applied for by mail. Call the bank to get started.
1.76% APY with an $500 minimum deposit from Ascencia, the Louisville, Ky.-based online division of Porter Bancorp, Inc.
