High Yielding Health Savings Account

A credit union in the Chicago-area is offering a Health Savings Account (HSA) with a 5.15% APY on average daily balances of $100 or more which depending upon a person’s tax bracket can be a tax equivalent yield of over 6.00%. Alliant Credit Union offers the high rate to members who work or live in the Chicago suburbs of Arlington Heights, Bensenville, Des Plaines, Elk Grove, Elmhurst, Franklin Park, Harwood Heights, Itasca, Mount Prospect, Northlake, Niles, Norridge, Park Ridge, Prospect Heights, River Grove, Rolling Meadows, Rosemont, Schiller Park, Wood Dale or Chicago O’Hare Airport property. To open a HSA account you must be enrolled in a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) or roll over funds from an existing HSA account.
