What is required on a CD Partial/Early Redemption Form? The penalty we assess on CD withdrawals has been disclosed on the CD disclosures given in accordance with TISA. When a customer requests a partial/early redemption, most deposit documentation systems will generate a form for the customer to sign. In relation to the form, are we required to disclose the amount of the penalty that will be assessed?
For example:
A customer withdraws $10,000 and the penalty is $100.
Is it acceptable for the partial redemption form to only disclose the gross withdrawal amount of $10,000?
- Or -
Are we required to show full itemization of the gross amount, less the penalty, and the net amount paid to the customer ( In my example, $10,000, less a penalty of $100, yields a net of $9,900 to be distributed?

We recently had a CD held by a Revocable Trust where the Grantor/Co-Trustee died. The other trustee came in and asked to redeem the CD early due to death. We waived the early redemption penalty due to death, but asked ourselves, is this a regulatory requirement or a courtesy, particularly in this case because a Trust doesn't "die".

We want to give a customer a fixed rate and a fixed term Repurchase Agreement (in place of a Certificate of Deposit) so that we can pledge government securities to the customer for these funds they deposit with us. I am looking for a template form to use to do this for the customer. We already have a Sweep Repurchase Agreement form that sweeps from a checking account to a Repurchase Agreement that is covered by securities pledged, but we want a fixed term and fixed rate form now also. If you have such a form or you know where I can get a form, please let me
know.
