Frequently asked questions

  • 1. What is a fixed term deposit account?

    It is a savings account that is linked to a specific period of time. Once the capital amount has been invested and the period has been chosen (e.g. 12 months, 24 months, 60 months) the interest rate is defined and locked in until the end of that chosen length of time. 

  • 2. What are the benefits of a fixed term deposit?

    The benefits of this account is that generally the interest earned is higher than that on an instant access or notice deposit account. The interest rate is locked in and does not change throughout the period. Most financial institutions offer a capital guarantee on the amount invested. 

  • 3. Can I get monthly interest on fixed deposit?

    Yes. Depending on your financial institution you can either choose to get paid your interest monthly or compound your interest until the end of the period. 

  • 4. Is interest on a fixed deposit taxable and are there any restrcitions on tax free deposits?

    Yes. Interest on a fixed term deposit is taxable and amounts exceeding the tax free allowance will be taxed in full.

  • 5. What is the risk of fixed term deposit?

    One risk of a fixed term deposit is that your capital is locked away for the chosen period and you will not have access to this until the period has ended without incurring a penalty fee. Additional risks may exist depending on your particular financial institution.

  • 6. What is the minimum amount for fixed deposit?

    The minimum amount for a fixed deposit depends on the financial institution you choose to save with as these vary.
