Sbi Recurring Deposit
A recurring deposit (RD) is a savings scheme where a certain amount is invested every month for a specified term. RD is among the prominent savings options among investors where the maturity amount including the invested principal and interest earned is payable to the individual on completion of the tenure.
Recurring deposit is considered by investors looking to build a corpus that comes with low risk and guaranteed returns. RD falls handy since it aims to invest a certain amount per month and you don’t have a lump sum to invest for a short-term purpose.
Recurring Deposits (RD) provides customers with the flexibility to invest an amount of their choice each month and save money with ease. Recurring deposit accounts are offered by most of the banks and NBFCs in India with tenures ranging from 6 months to 10 years.
