Overview

This 7-month term deposit pays 4.0% p.a., with interest paid at maturity. You can invest from $500,000 up to $1,000,000. As an Australian authorised deposit-taking institution, deposits are covered by the Government's Financial Claims Scheme up to $250,000 per person.

Who it suits

Savers who can set aside a lump sum for the full 7-month and want a guaranteed, fixed return.

Things to check

Your money is locked for the term; breaking early generally requires notice and reduces the interest you earn, and a fixed rate means you won't benefit if rates rise.
