2 For interest-bearing accounts, the interest rate and annual percentage yield may change. At our discretion, we may change the interest rate on the account periodically. Interest begins to accrue no later than the business day we receive credit (collected funds) for the deposit of noncash items (for example checks). If the account is closed before interest is credited, you will not receive the accrued interest.
