FAQs

* Minimum deposit of $5,000 and a maximum deposit of $499,999 to open a Save & Invest CD Package, which must be opened on or before November 27, 2009. Half of your opening deposit, or at least $2,500, is placed in a Save CD, which is a 6-month certificate of deposit account. Your Save CD will earn interest at a rate of 2.23%, which corresponds to an annual percentage yield (APY) of 2.25%. The remaining half of your opening deposit is placed in an Invest CD that matures on November 30, 2012. That means the term of your Invest CD is the period of time from the day you open your account until November 29, 2009, plus 36 months. Please visit a Sovereign Bank Branch to learn more about the Invest CD, including how you earn interest. A penalty will be imposed for early withdrawals from the Invest CD and for any early withdrawals from the Save CD within the first 6 days after the Save CD is opened. Personal accounts only.

** On the maturity date of your Invest CD and as long as you have not withdrawn the balance prior to that date, your principal balance will not decrease, regardless of the performance of any index. Your Save CD and your Invest CD are insured by the FDIC up to the maximum amount allowed by law.
