Representatives are available
Monday to Friday
8:30 am. To 7:00 p.m. ET
By issuing corporate notes, companies can borrow capital directly from investors at a fairly low
cost, while providing investors with benefits such as:
· Higher rates of interest than other cash alternatives like FDIC-insured savings
accounts, short-term CDs, and money market mutual funds
· Investments that are fully redeemable at any time
· Convenient banking-type features like check writing, free electronic transfers between
linked checking accounts, and the ability to wire funds
Corporate notes are a direct, unsecured investment in the debt of a corporation, and so are not
FDIC-insured. Unlike short-term bond funds or money market mutual funds, they are not diversified
pools of investments. Because they are a form of unsecured credit, you would be treated as an
unsecured creditor in the event of a default. Thats why it is critical for you to evaluate the
financial strength of the company you choose to invest in.

GE Interest Plus is an investment designed to provide individual investors with a convenient way to invest directly in General Electric Capital Corporation (GECC). It is an unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligation of GECC and is not a bank account or a money market fund. It is not a bank deposit and is not FDIC insured. It is offered in the U.S. by prospectus only. Complete information concerning GE Interest Plus is contained in the prospectus. Back to top How does GE Interest Plus set its rates? Rates are reviewed weekly by the GE Interest Plus Committee and may be reset as often. Rates will always be greater than the most recent sevenday average yield (non-compounded) for taxable money market funds in the United States as published in Money Fund Report a service of iMoneyNet, Inc. (Formerly IBCs Money Fund Report). Back to top How is yield calculated? Yield reflects the annual rate of return on your investment. It assumes that interest is accrued daily and posted monthly, and that there are no additional investments or redemptions. Back to top How Is Interest Accrued and Paid? Interest on the Notes will accrue daily. Accrued interest will be credited and automatically reinvested in additional Notes monthly and will begin to accrue interest on the first day following the date of such reinvestment. Back to top What is the minimum initial investment? The minimum initial investment is $500 or $250 if you also sign up for the Auto Invest Service. In addition, GE Employees can open an account with no initial investment if they sign up for the payroll deduction service at the time of account opening. Back to top Will the interest I earn be taxable? Yes. Interest earned on your GE Interest Plus investment will constitute income to you and is taxable in the year in which it is earned. Interest income is subject to federal and applicable state and local taxes. If you received an initial investment incentive, that incentive would be treated as interest income and reported on the 1099 Int. statement you will receive in January of each year. Back to top What if I have questions about my investment? For up-to-date information about your investment or current GE Interest Plus rates, you may login to Online Access or call our automated touch tone service at 1-800-433-4480, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Customer Service Representatives are also available at this number, Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Back to top Can I apply for an account if I do not have a Drivers License? Yes. If you do not have a Drivers License, we will need some other form of state issued identification to verify your identity. You should provide a copy of your identification along with your application. |
Back to top INVESTING AND REDEEMING What types of checks will you accept for investment? Your investment check must be drawn on a U.S. bank or a U.S. branch of a foreign bank. Funds must be in U.S. dollars. Money orders, travelers checks, starter checks, cashiers checks, credit card checks and third party checks are not acceptable. Your check must be made payable to GE Interest Plus or the registered investors of the GE Interest Plus Investment. Back to top Is an investment in GE Interest Plus Notes liquid? Yes. GE Interest Plus is liquid, meaning you can redeem your investment at any time. There are several options for redeeming funds. You can write a check ($250 or more), transfer funds to your linked checking account (our Quick Redemption Service), wire funds, or have us send you a check to your registered address. Back to top How do I add to or redeem from my investment? The easiest way to invest more or redeem is by signing up for our Quick Transactions Service. The service lets you electronically transfer money to and from your linked bank checking account. Other ways to invest include mailing in a check, wiring in funds, payroll deductions, authorizing Social Security to deposit your monthly payments, and authorizing automatic monthly transfers from your bank (Auto Invest). See question below for redemption options. Back to top Can I redeem my investment at anytime? Yes, you can do so at no charge by simply writing a check ($250 |
minimum), transferring money to your linked bank checking account through our Quick Redemption Service ($25 minimum and $50,000 daily maximum) or choosing the wire transfer option ($2,500 minimum and a $15 wire fee) when you make your initial investment. Back to top Are there any penalties for redeeming funds? No. You have unlimited access to your investment if the funds are available for redemption. If you write a check under the $250 requirement, however, you will be assessed a $10 fee. Back to top What type of bank account can I link to my GE Interest Plus investment? It must be a U.S.based bank checking account with a valid routing number. To link your bank checking account we require a copy of a voided check to validate the account and its registration. Please note that the registration of the bank checking account must be printed on the check. Back to top Can I Link More than One Bank Checking Account to my GE Interest Plus Investment? No. We allow the linking of only one bank checking account for both investments and redemptions. Back to top When are invested funds available for redemption? While funds invested will begin to accrue interest on the day they are posted to your account, they are available for redemption based on how the funds were invested: |
· Funds invested via a check are available for redemption 12 business days after the date of credit. |
· Funds invested via Quick Invest (Automated Clearing House transfer) are available 3 business days after the date of credit. |
· Funds invested via wire are available for redemption on the next business day. Back to top INVESTMENT QUALITY How safe is my investment? There is risk with any investment you make.

Most states have adopted one form of these uniform acts as a means of transferring ownership of property to children. The Acts allow a person to fund an account for a child, but limit that childs access to the account until the child reaches the age of majority. The age of majority is set by state law and typically ranges from 18 to 21. The child is the account owner, but the parent (or other adult) is named as custodian. The custodian controls the account until the child is no longer a minor. At that point, the custodial relationship ends and the child controls the account.
