What is a Term Deposit?
A Term Deposit is a great account for customers wanting to earn a higher return on their investment and won’t need to access the funds during the investment term. The interest rate is fixed for a set period of time, ranging from three months to five years, with the choice of interest paid at maturity for terms under 12 months or interest paid monthly, annually or at maturity for terms over 12 months.
