Savings Bonds

We sell and redeem U.S. Savings Bonds at each office. However, the U.S. Department of Treasury will end over-the-counter sales of paper savings bonds on December 31st, 2011.  This includes sales through financial institutions and applications mailed directly to the Federal Reserve Bank by members.  In 2012 and beyond, Savings Bonds will only be sold online at www.treasurydirect.gov. 

Savings bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government and are an attractive investment due to their affordability and rates.  These are available in numerous denominations and easily redeemed when needed.

Tax advantages may apply, including a special program when bonds are used for higher education!
