Certificate Accounts are the credit union equivalent of a CD. A Share Certificate Account (often called a CD or Certificate of Deposit at other financial institutions) is traditionally considered one of the safest ways to save for a variety of reasons, such as a dream vacation or for a down payment on the home you've always wanted. Certificate accounts always hold their original value, unlike the stock market, plus they accrue interest over time. This makes a certificate account a perfect option for investors seeking a secure means for retirement investing.

Individual Retirement Accounts - IRAs - are one of the most viable answers to the question of how to assure a secure retirement. Your credit union offers many options for your consideration when planning for your future including Traditional, Roth and Coverdell Education Savings Accounts. Each provides a wise retirement investment since money deposited into IRAs may be tax-deferred or tax-free until withdrawn
