Which institution now publishes a former brand's CD rates?

When a bank or credit union is acquired, merged or renamed, its CD page can redirect to the surviving institution. This table maps former brands in our institution records to the institution whose current quotes we track. A current quote is a new-account offer; it does not describe the contract rate of a CD opened before the change.

Quotes are the highest fresh non-relationship quote at any term and the highest at exactly one year, across all tiers and checked ZIP codes. Check the minimum shown; a regional quote applies only to its ZIP code.

What happens to an existing CD after a merger?

A fixed-rate CD is a contract. The surviving institution's notice and your account disclosure govern its rate, maturity date and renewal terms. Today's quotes from the surviving institution matter mainly when the CD matures and renews.

Deposit insurance grace period

If you held deposits at both institutions, they stay separately insured for a time after the merger. For banks, 12 CFR 330.4(b) keeps assumed deposits separately insured for six months. A time deposit is covered until its earliest maturity date after those six months. For credit unions, 12 CFR 745.2(f) applies the same structure to shares and share certificates.

A CD that matures within the six months and renews for the same dollar amount and term stays separately insured until its first maturity after the period. A CD renewed on any other basis, or not renewed, is separately insured only until the six months end. After that, balances at the combined institution share one insurance limit per ownership category. A rename without a merger of two insured institutions does not create a grace period.

Sources, scope and methodology

All findings are generated from verified D1 records using fixed calculations and templates. No language model writes these findings. Stale and future-dated quotes are excluded, as are relationship-only quotes. A regulator ID counts once in each institution-level comparison. This tracked sample is not a deposit-weighted national average.

Index comparisons use the highest applicable $10,000 quote at each exact term per regulator. A median or P90 requires at least 30 independent institutions in its group. Fresh regional and promotional offers can be included; availability and membership conditions still apply. ZIP comparisons instead match a stated product, term and tier.

Routine re-verification does not change the financial-content modification date. Tables can change as rates, coverage or freshness change. Download index data and source snapshots · Download current rate quotes · Full methodology · Corrections
