Under Regulation DD, 1030.4, you are required to disclose any minimum balance required to obtain the annual percentage yield disclosed. If there is not a minimum balance requirement, would you disclose anything? If so, would it need to be phrased like the following:

"To obtain the annual percentage yield disclosed, you must maintain a minimum balance of $0.01 in the account each day to obtain the disclosed annual percentage yield."

Your help is appreciated!

If there is no minimum balance required to earn interest, there is nothing to disclose.

Normally, I would agree. But to earn interest, you would have to have something in the account...right? Because anything times 0 is 0.

I could be totally overthinking this though.

I think you are over thinking this one.
