What is a Savings Account?

Icici Bank Savings Account

A savings account is the simplest type of account available to operate with a bank. It is normally used for saving money and keeping it safe while earning some interest in it. Most banks today offer different types of savings account to cater to different needs. Also, it has become quite easy to open an account and manage financial transactions through it.

There is a minimum balance amount that needs to be maintained in the account. The interest rate and service charges differ from bank to bank. There are schemes wherein the withdrawals have a monthly limit.

A savings account offers low returns on the money deposited and hence cannot be considered as an investment option. It is lower than a fixed-term deposit or any other investment product. A savings account offers maximum liquidity and quick accessibility to finance when you need
