DIVIDENDS
Communities of Abilene Federal Credit Union uses the Daily Balance Method to compute dividends. Using this method, dividends are calculated by applying a daily periodic rate to the balance in the account each day. You must maintain the minimum daily balances listed to obtain the disclosed annual percentage yields (APY). A withdrawal of principal or dividends will reduce earnings. Fees may reduce account earnings.
Your savings are Federally insured to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration, a U.S. Government Agency. Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) are federally insured up to $250,000.
