Beginning December 1, 2024
Enjoy a Boost to Your Savings.
Good news! This holiday season, we’re introducing a boost to your earning potential. As of December 1, 2024, your Primary Share Savings account is now using a “reverse-tier savings” approach. That means we are offering the highest interest rate on the lowest average daily balance tier.
At SESLOC, we understand that every dollar counts, and our goal is to ensure that you have the products you need to make the most of your hard-earned money. This new reverse-tier savings approach is a benefit for all personal memberships—that means you! Whether you’re an everyday saver, need to build an emergency fund, have a growing family, or just saving for a rainy day, we are pleased to offer this exciting new benefit.
The best part? There is nothing for you to do in order to earn this boost in dividends with this account. It’s our gift to you this holiday season, and another way we say “thanks” for being a loyal member. Be sure to check your December 2024 month-end statement in early January 2025 to see how much you’ve earned.
