Interest begins to accrue no later than the business day we receive credit for the deposit of noncash items (E.g., checks). If you close your account before interest is credited, you will not receive the accrued interest. We use the daily balance method to calculate interest on the account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day.
