§ 1541 Industrial Bank Deposit Rules

This law says an industrial bank can offer deposits that let you take the money out early, but it cannot offer deposits that let you take the money out any time you want.

Key Takeaways

  • •Industrial banks may accept deposits that can be redeemed before their maturity date.
  • •They are prohibited from accepting demand deposits, which are withdrawable at any time.
  • •The rule only applies unless the commissioner issues a different order or regulation.

Example

A person wants to put savings into an account that lets them pull cash whenever they need it, like a checking account.

The bank can’t let the person withdraw money on demand; it can only offer special accounts that have a set maturity but allow early redemption.
