Grow your money faster
See how much you could earn compared to leaving funds in your savings account.
M&T CDs, which are Time Deposit accounts, allow you to save at a higher rate when compared to keeping funds tucked away in your savings account. It’s a great option if you don’t need your funds right away and want to build your savings, and your rate is fixed for the term of the CD.
Check out how much you could save over 12 months with an initial deposit of $1,000 in an M&T CD, compared to leaving those funds in your savings account.
This comparison is for illustrative purposes only, and does not guarantee higher savings with a CD or that these specific rates and products will be available at all times in all areas. Call or visit a branch for APYs available in your area. Interest earned in this example assumes that $1,000 is held in each account for 12 months, and that the rates do not change during that time, although rates may change daily on Relationship Savings accounts. Fees could reduce earnings on the accounts. A penalty may be imposed for early withdrawal from a CD. The minimum opening deposit is $25 for a Relationship Savings account, and $1,000 for a CD. After the accounts are opened, the minimum balance to obtain the APY is $1.00.
