CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT
  

Certificates of Deposit allow you to invest for the term you desire at a guaranteed rate
of return.  If you have at least $500, you may choose from a 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 or 60
month CD.  To purchase a 7-91 day, 6 month or 15 month FLEX CD, you must have at
least $1,000 to invest. 

Our FLEX CD lets you exercise your right to earn more!  Instead of locking you into
one interest rate and a single deposit, the FLEX CD gives you options that can make
your money work harder.  During the life of your CD, you have the opportunity to flex
your money's muscle and:

        * MOVE TO A HIGHER INTEREST RATE AS RATES RISE
        * MAKE AN ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT 

With $10,000 or more, our Rising Rate CD gives you guaranteed interest rate increases 
every six months.  You also have the choice of the way in which you receive the 
interest earned on your CD and how often you receive it.

As an added benefit, upon Bedford Online Banking registration, you can access your CDs via the Internet.  You may set up notifications pertaining specifically to your CD, such as being notified as to when your CD will mature.  You may also view the amount of interest that has been compounded to your CD, if this is the way you have the CD set up.

Contact a Customer Service Representative today for more details!  See Rates
Penalty for early withdrawal may apply.  Other rules and restrictions apply.

  
  
INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS
  

Thinking about retirement?  It is never too early to plan for the future.  Begin saving
now with an IRA.  An IRA is a personal savings plan that gives you tax advantages for
setting aside money for retirement.  Two tax advantages of an IRA include:

        * Contributions you make to an IRA may be fully or partially deductible,
            depending on which type of IRA you have and on your circumstances,
       
* Generally, amounts in your IRA are not taxed until distributed.  In some
            cases, amounts are not taxed at all if distributed according to the rules.

We offer two types of IRAs, Traditional and Roth.  Which one suits your needs?
Let's take a look...

        TRADITIONAL IRA - A traditional IRA is a personal savings plan that gives you tax
                          advantages for saving for retirement. Contributions to a traditional
                          IRA may be tax deductible - either in whole or in part. Also, the
                          earnings on the amounts in your IRA are not taxed until they are
                          distributed.  The portion of the contributions that was tax deductible
                          does not get taxed until distributed.  Please contact your tax advisor
                          for more information.

        ROTH IRA - A Roth IRA is also a personal savings plan, but operates somewhat in
                          reverse compared to a traditional IRA. For instance, contributions to
                          a Roth IRA are not tax deductible while contributions to a traditional
                          IRA may be deductible. However, while distributions from a
                          traditional IRA may be included in income, the distributions from a
                          Roth IRA are not included in income. For both types, traditional and
                          Roth, earnings that remain in the account are not taxed.  Please
                          contact your tax advisor for more information.

Access your IRAs online with Bedford Online Banking!  Upon registration, you will have free Internet Banking access, which entitles you to have access to your accounts, even your IRA.  You can keep track of your balance as well as the contributions and distributions that have been made.  Sign up today to monitor your retirement fund!

U.S. SAVINGS BONDS

 Getting what you want out of life doesn't have to mean putting your hard-earned
 money at risk.  Here are some great reasons to think about saving money with U.S.
 Savings Bonds.

     Competitive. U.S. Savings Bonds earn competitive rates of return compared to other forms of saving. Interest on Savings Bonds accrues monthly and compunds semiannually.
     Safe. Savings Bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. Your Savings Bonds are registered, so the Treasury can replace them if they're lost, mutilated, or stolen.
     Affordable. For as little as $25, you can start saving money with U.S. Savings Bonds. From there, you can purchase as much as $15,000 worth of Series EE Bonds and $30,000 of I Bonds each year.
     Convenient. Buy Savings Bonds where you work, bank, online, or with the EasySaver Plan.
     Accessible. Savings Bonds are easily redeemable, so if you need your money unexpectedly, it's right there for you. The longer you let your bonds grow, the more you benefit, yet you can redeem that any time after six months.*
     Tax Benefits. The interest earned on Savings Bonds is exempt from all state and local income taxes. Federal income taxes are deferred until the bonds reach final maturity, or you redeem them, whichever is first. If you qualify, using Savings Bonds to pay for qualified higher education expenses may allow you to exclude your earnings from federal income taxes as well. Please contact your tax advisor for additional information.

  Suggestions:  If you decide to use EFT, keep these tips in mind:

  • Take care of your ATM/debit card.  Know where it is at all times; if you lose it, report it as soon as possible.
  • Memorize your PIN for your ATM/debit card.  Never store it in your purse/wallet.
  • Keep and compare your receipts for all types of EFT transactions with your periodic statements.  That way, you can find errors or unauthorized transfers and report them.
  • Make sure you know and trust a merchant before you share any bank account information or pre-authorize debits to your account.  Be aware that some merchants use electronic processing of your check if you sign a receipt authorizing the transaction.
