Companion Savings Account

Saving money and making money go hand in hand at Kerndt Brothers Savings Bank. 

Open a Certificate of Deposit (CD) for $1,000 or more and a term of six months or longer and qualify for a high-yield Companion Savings Account of equal or lesser deposit value.

Or, fund a new Traditional or Roth Individual Retirement Account (IRA), and qualify, too!

Either way, you'll earn a very competitive rate on your liquid savings while earning a high APY with your term CD or IRA account, too.

A Companion Savings Account helps you grow your money quicker while staying diversified with liquid and term accounts. With the Companion account, you'll build your savings faster for planned projects like a home improvement, a major purchase, vacation, or just a rainy day or emergency set-aside. Since there is no time commitment, you can withdraw when the money is needed.
