What is the maximum number of co-owners on a Savings Bond?
Tom’s response
Only one or two names can be on a Savings Bond registration. The first name is the owner, the second name can be designated as either the co-owner or the beneficiary.
A co-owner has the right to cash a Savings Bond while the owner is alive without the owner’s permission.
A beneficiary, on the other hand, can’t cash a Savings Bond unless the owner has died.

Loading...FDIC Insured Certificates of Deposit can pay 1 or 2% more than savings bonds when held for a similar length of time. See top CD Rates Below:
