Time Certificate of Deposit Program (TCD program)

This program was established in 1973 to provide opportunity for public depositaries in the State of Washington to receive a portion of surplus funds making it available to benefit the local economy.

The Office of the State Treasurer (OST) accomplishes this through the investments in Certificate of Deposits.

  • Funds are offered semi-annually (January and July) to every qualified Public Depositary in the State of Washington.
  • Allocation of funds based on Financial institutions net worth.
  • All certificates are issued for approximately 181 days on a 365-day basis with simple interest paid at maturity.
  • The semi-annual rate will be set by OST using a bond yield calculated as 30 basis points over the current six-month Treasury Bill posting.
  • All certificates will automatically renew at maturity unless notification is given in a timely manner to the OST.
  • All Information about proposed CDs is available on the OST website at http://tre.wa.gov/; 2-3 days prior to rollover date.
  • Response back from public depositary by fax, phone or email with any changes must be by 11:00am one working day prior to the rollover date.
