FIXED DEPOSIT

What is a fixed deposit?

Fixed deposit or FD is a financial service that is provided by the bank. In a fixed deposit, an investor can earn the interest rates on the deposited amount of money.

In FD, a person fixes a particular amount in a scheme provided by the bank for a definite period, and then the bank gives the interest rates on that specific deposited amount until the maturity date.

You cannot withdraw that fixed amount till the maturity date and if you cancel your fixed deposit then the bank will charge a fine against you and you have to pay that fine to release the deposited amount.

The interest rates that the bank gives on the amount of fixed deposit is high as compared to any other type of interest offered on a savings account or current account.

The interest rates provided by the bank varies from 4 percent to 7 percent. The duration of an FD is as less as seven days to as high as ten years. It is the best method to invest your money as there is no risk factor involved here.
