What Is Annual Percentage Yield?

Unlike Annual Percentage Rate (APR), Annual Percentage Yield (APY) accounts for the compounded interest over time. Interest is added to your account balance, which increases the principal amount, which means more money paid in interest. Reporting the APY of our products and services provides you with a more accurate long-term image of your earnings.

Why Do Interest Rates Change Over Time?

The interest rates at any bank or credit union are often subject to change. There are a handful of factors that may cause the interest rate on savings and deposits to change. Below, we list two of the most common factors.

• Monetary Policy. If you follow economic publications, you are already aware of the role the Federal Reserve plays in shaping interest rates across the country. The Federal Reserve exists to create a stable and sustainable economy. In its fight against inflation, this organization may elect to tighten or loosen interest rates as a means of keeping the market stable.
• Economic Growth. Credit unions and banks have a responsibility to look after their customers' money. During periods of slow economic growth, financial institutions may adjust interest rates to ensure that they can deliver on their promise to build member assets. Much like the Federal Reserve, credit unions and banks are constantly working to create sustainable and long-term value for their members.
