Term Investments between $500 and $2,000 receive a flat rate of 2.00% per annum.

Interest is calculated on the daily closing balance multiplied by the annual interest rate, divided by the number of days in the year (365 days, or 366 days in a leap year).

Where your investment starts in a non-leap year and matures in a leap year (or vice-versa), the daily interest earned is calculated on 365 days for the portion of the investment held within the non-leap year, and 366 days for the portion of the investment held within the leap year.

There are no fixed terms with a call investment, so you can access your money or top up your account whenever you like. Remember, if you do make a withdrawal you may earn less interest. Enquire here or we can have a chat at our offices.
