Term Notes

Targeting a specific date for some of your investments can help you better plan for your first house, or big events such as having a baby, celebrating a wedding or even retiring.

Short- and Long-Term Investment Options

Your goals vary, just as the ways we can share our faith vary. For some of your investment portfolio, you may have specific goals that need to be achieved by a certain date. That's why an LCEF Term Note might be the right choice: the funds are invested for a specific period of time and remain yours to redeem at the end of the term or re-invest.

You may select:

  • Fixed-Rate Term Note—this note carries a constant interest rate, and requires a $500 minimum investment. Variety of terms available from 6 months to 20 years.
  • Floating-Rate Term Note—rate is adjusted monthly based on prevailing market rates, and requires a $100 minimum investment. 30-month and 60-month terms available. Investments of $25 or more accepted throughout the term.
