How do our term investments work?
SBS Bank term investments give you strong returns, just like a term deposit. Because we’re a building society, your money helps Kiwis buy their own home. So it’s working hard for you, and to help people across New Zealand build a better future.
- You deposit your funds with us for a fixed term with an
agreed interest rate. - We calculate your interest daily.
- You can receive your interest at the end of the term, as
monthly or quarterly payments, or reinvest it quarterly to
compound your growth. - There are no establishment fees or account fees.
- You can manage your investment online or on your mobile.
- We deduct any tax automatically from your interest.
- You can apply to withdraw some or all of your money at
any time, but we will charge a break fee on those funds.
