Magyar Bank serves individuals and businesses in Central New Jersey.  The bank operates five branch locations in New Brunswick, North Brunswick, South Brunswick, and Branchburg.  The Bank was founded in 1922 by Hungarian immigrants with the purpose of helping the community’s residents achieve the “American Dream”.  The banks name comes from the Hungarian word to describe an individual from Hungary.

Magyar Bank has three primary savings vehicles available to consumers; a regular savings account, a money market account and certificates of deposit.  The savings account is an interest bearing savings account that has no charge with $500.00 minimum daily collected balance.  The money market account is a tiered-rate interest bearing checking account with limited transactions.  The certificates of deposit come with competitive interest rates, various terms and a choice of maturity date.
