The key differences between a Time Deposit and a Savings Account lie in the flexibility and interest rates.
A Time Deposit comes with a fixed deposit term and typically offers higher interest rates compared to a savings account. However, funds cannot be withdrawn before the maturity date, making it a better option for long-term savings.
A Savings Account, on the other hand, has no fixed deposit term. This allows you to access your funds anytime with greater flexibility. While it provides easy access for daily expenses, the interest rate is generally lower than that of a Time Deposit.
Regardless of your financial situation, whether you’re aiming to save, invest, or earn rewards, a Time Deposit can be a great option.
Many banks, including Standard Chartered, offer Time Deposit products tailored to various saving habits. For example, Standard Chartered offers flexible deposit tenor ranging from 7 days to 12 months with a low entry threshold of just HKD10,000. You can choose between attractive Time Deposit interest rates or mile rewards as your Time Deposit returns. Simply select the Time Deposit plan that aligns with your financial goals.
Consider choosing our “Online Time Deposit” for the best of both worlds.
