Highest CD Rates Info

It’s been a couple of months or so since we here at Highest CD Rates Info last looked at current CD rates offered for ING Direct CD rates. So here’s an update on the highest CD rates offered at ING.

*Editor’s Note: this is an older article, and we have recently updated our research about current ING CD Rates.  For our latest article on ING Certificate of Deposit Rates, please see the following page: ING CD Rates

Both the six and nine month short-term ING Orange CD rates are at 1.15% APY, which is very competitive on the national market right now for those terms. Those annual percentage yields are well above the national average in current CD rates at those terms, which is around 0.75% currently.

One year to 36 month terms offer a 1.50% APY, which is competitive on the shorter terms in that range, but not the longer ones. ING Direct CD rates after 18-24 months, in fact, are not nearly as good as some of the highest CD rates offered nationally right now.

For 48 or 60 month terms, ING certificate of deposit rates are 1.75% APY, which compares badly to some of the highest CD rates nationally at 3.00% for that same term.

Of course, all ING Direct bank accounts (including these CDs) are FDIC insured to the fullest extent of the law and current CD rates change often. So if any of htese ING Orange CD rates appeal to you, lock your rate in now.

We’ll be looking at Regions Bank certificates of deposit in our next post, so stay tuned to see the competition.
