Morgan Stanley Private Bank, National Association Rate and Fee Schedule
Important: Effective on or about, October 31, 2023, changes will be made to this Rate & Fee Schedule. View the upcoming enhancements.
Rates
Except for fixed-rate certificates of deposit, which earn the same interest rate through maturity, the interest rate and Annual Percentage Yield ("APY") on deposits can change as often as daily, at our discretion, without prior notice to you. Information on current interest rates and APYs can be found by visiting etrade.com/ratesheet. The interest rate and the corresponding APY for all individual or trust deposits over $10,000,000 and all commercial deposits over $99,000 are subject to negotiation by the parties.
Calculation Method: We use the daily balance method to calculate interest on accounts. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day. Interest begins to accrue no later than the business day we receive credit for the deposit of non-cash items (for example, checks).
If a minimum average balance is required to avoid a fee, the average balance is calculated by adding the principal in the account for each day of the period and dividing that figure by the number of days in that period.
Tiered Accounts: On tiered-rate accounts, we apply the interest rate for the balance tier of your end-of-day balance against the entire balance of your account. Different rates may apply to different tiers.
This schedule will assist you in comparing the terms of our deposit products. They are part of our Account Agreement with you.
Coverdraft Protection: Coverdraft Protection is available for checking accounts and money market accounts. You must affirmatively enroll an eligible account to receive coverage. If you overdraw your eligible account, we may use our Coverdraft protection service to transfer funds from another one of your bank accounts (where the accounts are held by the same parties and are under the same primary taxpayer identification number) to cover the overdraft. Transfers are at our sole discretion and may be made in $100 increments. A fee may be assessed to your eligible account for each transfer, as noted below. Coverdraft protection does not involve the lending of funds, but rather transfers of available funds between your accounts.

Certificates of Deposit ("CDs")
(Not available for new account opening)
Rates: All fixed-rate CDs have rates that are fixed from the date of deposit until their maturity date. The APY is based on no withdrawal of credited interest and no redemption prior to the stated maturity date.
Compounding and Crediting Frequency: Interest is compounded daily. Interest will compound from the date of deposit until the last full day before the date of withdrawal using the daily balance method. Interest will be credited to your account on a quarterly basis.
Time Requirements: The initial maturity date of your account will be based on the minimum initial deposit date and the term you have selected.
Transaction Limitations: You may only make one deposit into or withdrawal from your account during the one-week grace period immediately following maturity. A new maturity date will be calculated from the date of the deposit or withdrawal, as applicable.
Early Withdrawal Penalties: Certificate of Deposit customers agree to keep funds on deposit for a fixed period of time. Unless otherwise provided, partial withdrawals and additional deposits are not permitted. If we permit an early withdrawal of principal from a CD, we may impose an early withdrawal penalty. Tax penalties also may apply to premature distributions from IRAs. If we permit a withdrawal of principal before the stated maturity, we may impose a penalty equal to one-half of the interest payable over the term of the CD whether earned or unearned. The penalty will be assessed based upon the portion of the principal that is withdrawn. We may elect not to impose a penalty for a withdrawal of principal following the death or adjudication of incompetence of any account owner if the account was opened before such adjudication and not extended or renewed after that date.
Withdrawal of Interest Prior to Maturity: Interest earned and credited to the account may be withdrawn with no penalty. However, the APY assumes interest will remain on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal will reduce earnings.
IRA CDs: IRA CDs must be for a term of one year or longer. Only interest distributions and required minimum distributions are penalty free. All other distributions are subject to the early withdrawal penalty described above, regardless of the age of the account owner. There is a seven calendar day revocation period for IRAs.
Fixed-rate CDs: The interest rates and corresponding APYs for these accounts are fixed for the term of the account from the date of deposit.
PrimeLink CDs: The interest rate for this product is tied to the Prime Rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal. The interest rate is variable and will automatically change when the Prime Rate increases or decreases. No notice will be provided when there are changes in the interest rate and APY for variable-rate products. Early-withdrawal penalties for PrimeLink CDs are based on the interest rate at the time of withdrawal. The penalty is equal to one-half of the interest payable over the term of the CD whether earned or unearned. The penalty will be assessed based upon the portion of the principal that is withdrawn. Early-withdrawal penalties may be waived in the event of death or legal incompetence of any owner.
Renewal Policy – IRA CDs: Unless we provide otherwise, IRA CDs will automatically renew at maturity at the current rate for the same term, type and amount. You will have seven calendar days after the maturity date to withdraw funds without penalty. Interest will be paid during the grace period at the rate offered on new, similar accounts as of the maturity date. If you close the account during the grace period, interest will accrue past the maturity date through the last full day prior to the account closure. You will be subject to the early-withdrawal penalties stated above if you close the account after the grace period. We reserve the right to change the rate of interest for automatically renewable accounts at each renewal period. If we elect not to permit the renewal of an automatically renewable time deposit, we will notify you in advance.
Renewal Policy – Non-IRA CDs: Non-IRA CDs will not automatically renew at maturity. Upon maturity, the balance of your account will be distributed to you directly via check disbursement (or other disbursement method that we may make available and is selected by you), and your account will be closed. Interest will not be paid on any balances after the maturity date.
Maturity: The term for each CD is specified on the account application.
