Individual Retirement Accounts

Back to Top

The key word in the phrase "Individual Retirement Account" is individual.
In other words, if you want your retirement to live up to your financial expectations, you can rely on one individual: you.

Today, you won't find many employers who will completely fund your retirement for you. It's unlikely that you will spend your entire career working for one company. That's why an IRA is so important.

With an IRA, you can make tax-favored contributions for yourself from the first year you begin working until the age of 70 and 1/2. And, during both your working years and your retirement, you can manage your IRA assets according to your personal needs and circumstances.

IRA Questions and Answers:

Q. What is an Individual Retirement Account and how does it work?
A. An IRA gives you the chance to set up a tax-favored retirement account for yourself and your beneficiaries. Typically, your IRA is created as a trust or a custodial account with a bank acting as your trustee or custodian. And each year, you can make IRA contributions, which are held and invested for your benefit until you are ready to receive them in retirement.

Q. How do I qualify to open an Individual Retirement Account?
A. All you have to do is earn compensation. This compensation can be in the form of wages, salary, commissions, tips, professional fees, bonuses or other amounts in return for service. (All taxable alimony and separate maintenance payments received by an individual under a decree of divorce or separate maintenance are treated as compensation for IRA purposes.) You can also set up an IRA if you work for yourself and have income either from a sole proprietorship or a partnership (assuming you are an active partner who provides services to the partnership).

For more information about IRA's, please fill out our account package request form and specify that you would like information about Individual Retirement Accounts.

Interest Bearing Accounts

Back to Top

FNB offers a variety of interest bearing accounts:
These accounts earn interest at a rate that is established at the discretion of the bank. Your interest rate and annual percentage yield may change. We use the daily balance method to calculate interest on your account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day. Interest is not compounded. Interest begins to accrue on the business day you deposit noncash items (example, checks). Interest will be credited to your account at the end of the statement period.

If the account is closed prior to the end of the statement period, no interest will be paid unless the funds are transferred to another First National interest earning account. Under Federal Law the Bank may require written notice of an intended withdrawal from an interest earning account seven (7) days before withdrawal. Please review our rate table to determine the interest rate and annual percentage yield on these accounts.

Certificates of Deposit

Back to Top

The minimum deposit to open a Certificate of Deposit is $1,000.00.  Click here to review our rate table to determine the interest rate and annual percentage yield on Certificates of Deposit.

Single Maturity-Fixed Rate Certificate of Deposit
Your Certificate earns interest at the rate set by the Bank at the time of deposit. You will be paid this rate until your Certificate matures. This account will not renew automatically at maturity. You have a seven (7) calendar day grace period after maturity to renew or add to your Certificate without loss of interest. If you choose to withdraw your Certificate, no interest is paid after maturity.

Automatic Renewable Certificate of Deposits
Your Certificate earns interest at the rate set by the bank at the time of deposit. You will be paid this rate until your Certificate matures. Your Certificate will automatically renew at maturity. Your interest rate and annual percentage yield may change at maturity. The interest rate and annual percentage yield shall be the rate the Bank is offering at the time your Certificate matures on new certificates of the same term and amount.

The Bank retains the right to redeem your Certificate at any original or subsequent maturity date upon ten (10) calendar days prior written notice. You will have seven (7) calendar days after the original maturity and each subsequent maturity to withdraw your Certificate without penalty. You may add to your Certificate during the seven (7) day grace period without loss of interest on the original Certificate. If you choose to withdraw your Certificate, no interest is paid after maturity.

Variable Rate Certificate of Deposits
Your interest rate and annual percentage yield may change. The interest rate as shown on your certificate is indexed to the average discount rate for the twenty-six (26) week U.S. Treasury Bills determined by the weekly auction. Your interest rate is adjusted each week on the first business day following the auction. These certificates are available with a maturity of twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) months. This account will not renew automatically at maturity. No interest will be paid after maturity.

Calculation and Payment of Interest Certificates of Deposits
Certificates of Deposit with a maturity of less than six (6) months or less than $5,000 will have interest paid at maturity, and interest is not compounded.

On Certificates of Deposit with a maturity of six (6) months or longer and for $5,000 or more, interest is compounded monthly. You may elect to have your interest paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. Your annual percentage yield assumes interest will remain on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal of interest will reduce earnings.

Interest is not compounded on Variable Rate Certificates of Deposit, but you may elect to have your interest paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually.
