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.

We are changing our Certificate of Deposit from a single rate to a tiered rate. My question is, do we need to post all the various levels of each CD term on our lobby board?
For example, right now 12 month CD has a minimum deposit of $1,000 and the APR is 0.65 and the APY is 0.65. When we change, the 12 month CD will be $1,000 to $9,999, with the APR being 0.65 and the APY is 0.65, $10,000 to $24,999 , the APR is 0.70 and the APY is 0.70 and for $25,000 and above, the APR is 0.75 and the APY is 0.75.
Does the lobby board need to show that for each CD term?

A new customer came in and opened a DDA and a 30 month CD using a $100k check from her account at another bank. The CSR opened the accounts with a split deposit and placed a New Account Reg CC hold on the $50k used to open the DDA. The Hold Notice was generated showing the check number as a $50k check.
It seems to me the check should have been deposited into the new DDA and the hold placed on the entire check. Once the check cleared, funds could then have been transferred to open a new CD.
Although Reg CC does not apply to time accounts, should the teller go back and place the same New Account Hold on the CD so that the entire check is accounted for? I am thinking if this check should come back, it will cause more issues with the CD than necessary. Any thoughts?
