If the bank is no longer in business because it was bought out/merged with another bank, then go to that other bank and see if they'll honor it (they should).

If the bank is no longer in business because the bank is just no longer in business or you don't know what happened to it, then it's going to be trickier. I'd try contacting the FDIC to see if they can help.

When you receive a savings bond worth 100 dollars can you cash it right away?

The tradition of giving someone a savings bond as a gift has largely disappeared since all purchases must now be done electronically. As of January 1, 2012, paper savings bonds are no longer issued by the U.S. Treasury although millions of Americans still hold previously issued paper savings bonds. Typically, a savings bond cannot be cashed in shortly after purchase. For example, a purchaser of the I or EE Savings Bonds must hold the bond for one year before being allowed to cash it in and an early redemption penalty applies if redeemed before 5 years.

In order to determine the value of the bond in question, it is necessary to provide both the issue date and the denomination of the savings bond. For example, a Series E savings bond issued in 06/1980 with a denomination of $100 would be worth $447.00 as of July 2013. In this example, the E Bond reached maturity after 30 years and no longer accrues interest.

CDs are effectively savings accounts with a fixed length of time the money is held for (usually with a penalty for withdrawing early).

Can a gold certificate be traded in for gold coins?

No, not directly. Among other things, gold certificates are no longer equivalent to anything near the current cost of the amount of gold they represented when issued, and gold coins are not issued for circulation anymore. HOWEVER ... if you sell the certificate to a collector or dealer, you'll probably have enough little green, blue, and orange pieces of paper - i.e. current bills - to go buy some gold coins with them.

Is there a need to open an account for issuing a certificate of deposit?

Yes. A "certificate of deposit" is a type of savings account where you deposit a minimum amount of money for a minimum amount of time (during which time you cannot make any withdrawals) to accrue a certain interest rate. Usually the higher the dollar amount and the longer the time period, the higher the interest rate.


Why is root certificate longer than website certificate?

Web certificates are derived from root certificates. So, for example, root certificates come from certificate authorities like Verisign and are built into web browsers. Web certificates are those that companies get from the certificate authorities and those will use the root certificate as part of the validation process.
