ISN Bank is offering some attractive short term CD rates. These include a CD with a yield 3.77% APY for terms of 3 to 5 months, a 3.82% APY 6-month CD and a 3.87% APY 12-month CD. Terms under 6 months require a minimum deposit of $10,000. The minimum for terms of 6 months and over is $1,000.

The bank has an application page which describes how you can mail or fax in the application and fund it with a wire transfer. If you apply, definitely try calling first. They will take your name and give you 7 days to fund the CD at the current rate. They don’t charge for incoming wire transfers.

Outbound wire transfers that you might use when the CD matures is $15. Another thing to note about CD maturity is that the grace period is 7 days and they don’t pay interest during the grace period if you close the CD.
