Foreign Currencies and CDs. We think that's a great combination.

We bring foreign currencies closer to home with a familiar product



WorldCurrency Certificates of Deposit - Single-currency

If you seek to diversify your portfolio globally, then foreign currencies could be a beneficial addition. And our WorldCurrency® certificates of deposit Glossary can make adding currencies a simple process—and potentially rewarding too. You earn interest in the currency of your choice and potentially benefit from appreciation against the U.S. dollar. However if your selected currency depreciates against the U.S. dollar, you could experience a loss to some of your principal deposit. We also offer competitive conversion exchange rates Glossary within 1% of the available market rate for your currency—among the lowest in the nation.1

  • No monthly account fees.
  • Open with a competitive minimum deposit of $10,000 (some exceptions may apply).
  • FDIC insured for bank insolvency.2

How can I be sure that opening a WorldCurrency CD is right for me?

Our WorldCurrency CDs deliver an easy way for you to participate in the often complex world of foreign currencies. These CDs can be useful in hedging your U.S. dollar investments or rounding out your long-term portfolio strategy. We encourage you to use our currency tools and resources to educate yourself about currency investing and assess your tolerance for the associated risks.

What can you tell me about any risks associated with WorldCurrency CD accounts?2

While FDIC insurance will protect you from bank failure up to $250,000 (until December 31, 2013), it's important to understand that your deposit will be susceptible to losses or gains due to currency-price fluctuations. Various geopolitical and economic influences can affect a currency's value. We recommend that you carefully consider both the potential for currency appreciation (or loss) along with the rate of interest that you may earn when assessing the use of foreign currency products as part of a broadly diversified investment strategy.

I'm interested in opening a WorldCurrency CD account, what's my next step?
