Certificates of Deposit
A certificate of deposit (CD) is an FDIC insured1, interest-bearing bank deposit that is held for a specified period of time. In exchange for depositing your money for a specific period of time, the bank pays a fixed interest rate that’s often higher than the rates offered on savings accounts.
At Bar Harbor Bank & Trust, you can:
- Open a CD with as little as $500; terms from 1 month to 5 years.
- Make incremental deposits of $250 or greater for terms 1-11 months.
- Make one fee free withdrawal per term if you have an Advantage CD. $10,000 minimum balance to open, terms of 1-9 months available.
