Whether it’s saving for that dream holiday or a stress-free retirement, our Term Deposit Account has got you covered.

If you're looking to earn a bit more interest than that offered by our savings accounts and you’re happy to leave your money untouched for a longer period, a Term Deposit is a fantastic, high-security option.

It offers a high, fixed rate of interest, calculated daily and paid at maturity for terms up to 12 months. While for terms of one to five years, interest can be paid fortnightly, monthly, quarterly or annually – it’s your choice.
