FREMONT, CA: Investing intelligently is the best way to make your wealth. The habit of saving is not hard to build. The best path to start saving is by establishing a fixed deposit for you or your family. Banks offer an attractive interest rate and several benefits, for example, flexible tenor, guaranteed returns with high safety ratings, and simple online application.
Security and assured returns
Apart from investments in the stock market, which are subject to market risks, fixed deposits are safe investments that guarantee returns. When you invest your money, you know exactly how much you will gain at maturity.
This is a great support when you set financial targets as you know how much your money will grow within a period. It also supports financial planning as you can invest any amount of your choice based on your savings.
Easy access to credit
A fixed deposit can be utilized to obtain a loan when you need funds. The sanctioned amount is generally up to 70% of the fixed deposit amount and is offered at competitive interest.
Risk-free investment
Most market investments are volatile and rely on the economic scenario. This is not the event with fixed deposits. You can ensure that your investment in a fixed deposit is secure. The interest gained at the end of the lock-in period does not depend on the company's profit. This makes fixed deposits a very safe bet for you.
The choice between cumulative and non-cumulative terms
Fixed deposits give you the benefit of being able to choose between cumulative and non-cumulative interests. Therefore you can decide when you want to receive the interest gains. If you depend on the interest income to pay off EMIs and bills, choosing monthly or quarterly payouts is a good choice.
Preferably, you can keep your savings confined until the end of the tenor. You gain from the compounded interest by choosing cumulative terms, which gives you high returns.
Flexibility to withdraw funds
In financial emergencies, you can withdraw your fixed deposit before maturity. A definite fee may be levied for the same, but the process is generally simple. This flexibility helps you in times of financial crisis.
A fixed deposit is the safest investment, in addition to being flexible and providing attractive returns. By choosing this form of investment, you can start planning your future by building your wealth.
