The Interest Rate and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) are subject to change. Interest is compounded quarterly and credited quarterly on savings accounts.
Bank of Salem interest computation is the daily balance method. This method applies a periodic rate to the principal in the account each day. Interest begins to accrue no later than the business day we receive credit for the deposit of non-cash items (checks).
Bank of Salem may require no less than seven (7) day notice in writing before each withdrawal from an interest-bearing account other than a time deposit, or from any other savings account.
See a Customer Service Representative for Information about Savings Accounts and the Current Effective Rates.
Any Bank of Salem Checking or Savings Account or Line of Credit may be arranged to sweep to avoid service charge fees or insufficient funds charges at no cost!
Dormant Accounts: An account is dormant if deposits or withdrawals have not been made for one year.

Important information about procedures for opening a new account:
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, Federal law requires financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, physical address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We will also ask to see your driver’s license and/or other identifying documents.
