Additional Information
Commercial Account Analysis allows for monthly maintenance fees, transaction fees and other components of the monthly activity cost to be offset by compensatory balances. Your monthly earnings credit is determined by your account's average collected balance, multiplying it by the earnings credit rate* and the number of days in the statement cycle and then dividing that number by 365 days. Your account will not be debited a monthly maintenance fee for the month if your monthly earnings credit is larger than your account's monthly activity costs. If the monthly activity cost is greater than the monthly earnings credit, the difference is your monthly maintenance fee. Commercial Account Analysis is used on all Texas Gulf Bank business checking accounts with the exception of the Portside account; however, please note that only non-interest-bearing accounts are eligible for an earnings credit offset.
*The Earnings Credit Rate for Commercial Account Analysis is based on Texas Gulf Bank's Cost of Funds and is subject to change at any time at the bank's discretion. Earning's Credit Rate is determined by Texas Gulf Bank, N.A. and is set each month based on current market conditions. You may call us at (800) 467-7216 for the current Earnings Credit Rate. The interest rate as well as the rate index used in the calculation may change at any time at bank’s discretion. (average collected balance X earnings credit rate X number of days in statement cycle) / 365 = monthly earnings credit). Additionally, National Prime interest rate will be charged each day of the monthly statement cycle that you have a negative average collected balance and will be included in the miscellaneous service charge. (The amount of the negative average collected balance for the monthly statement cycle will be multiplied by the National Prime interest rate [Wall Street Journal /WSJ Prime Rate as of the first of the month] and that product multiplied by the number of days in the statement cycle, then divided by 365.) You may contact the bank for the current National Prime interest rate. The interest rate as well as the rate index used in the calculation may change at any time at the bank's discretion.
A third-party provider approves the application and negotiates the rates associated with the services.
