*APY= Annual Percentage Yield. There is an early withdrawal penalty on IRA accounts. The Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) are subject to change at any time. The APY is based on the assumption that dividends will remain in the account until maturity. Any withdrawals, fees, or transfers reduce earnings and there may be penalties for early withdrawals.
