Money Management Disclosure



Money Management Account

  • Accountholder (s) must maintain a minimum balance of $1,000 to earn dividends at Money Management rates. No dividends will be earned for the period of time that the balance remains below the required balance.
  • Dividends will be computed on the actual dollar amount for each day funds are on deposit in the account. Dividends will be paid and compounded monthly and will be credited to the account as of the first day of the month following the end of the dividend period. Dividends will be available to the accountholder (s) anytime after the payment.
  • The average daily dividend rate on balances of $1,000 or more (Money Management Rates) will be based on money market conditions and on the average daily yield of the short-term investment portfolio maintained by HEWFCU. These investments are usually comprised of, but not limited to, U.S. Government Agency securities and obligations, U.S. Treasury bills and notes, insured certificates of deposit, common trust investments and such similar investments. As with Share Accounts at HEWFCU, dividends are based upon the Credit Union's earnings and cannot be guaranteed. For purposes of computing dividend rates, the rate calculation period shall extend from the 1st day of the month to and including the last day of the month for which dividends are to be computed.
  • Additional deposits will be accepted for credit to the Money Management Share Draft Account in any amount. Deposits may be made in person at any HEWFCU office during normal business hours, by mail, wire transfer from another institution, or by payroll allotment/direct deposit. Deposits received prior to 4:00 p.m. any business day will be credited to the account effective the day of receipt. Funds received after 4:00 p.m. will be credited as of the next business day.
  • All non-cash payments received for credit to the Money Management Share Draft Account are credited subject to final payment. Withdrawals may not be made on such items deposited in this account until collected. Any amount not collected, plus expenses incurred, may be charged back to this account or any account at HEWFCU held in the name (s) of the accountholder (s).
