Saving with the compound interest effect

There are a number of factors that play a role, but read more in our article The compound interest effect. Fixed-term deposits. There's no better way to save than with this snowball effect.

Savings account or fund?

Choosing between a savings account and fund can be a bit tricky, but both have their benefits, depending on your savings goals. Here are a few thoughts on when each type of saving is best.

If you're planning to save up for something you want to do soon, such as building up a financial cushion or treating yourself to a nice trip, a savings account is a good choice. With a savings account, your money is safe and you know exactly how much you'll have after a year — no surprises!

Short-term saving usually means you want to achieve your goal within three years. In such a short period of time, the stock market can be fairly volatile, making stocks and funds an uncertain choice when you need a fixed amount of money within a specific time frame.

For longer savings plans, such as preparing for retirement, funds may be a better option. Historically, the stock market has tended to yield better returns over longer periods of time than savings accounts, which can make your savings even more profitable.

Some examples of short-term savings goals where the savings account is preferable include saving for a cushion, a dream trip, or maybe a new car. Depending on your needs and the time available, you can choose the savings option that suits you best. No matter which option you choose, it's great that you're thinking about your financial future!

What is a savings account?

A savings account is a type of bank account that is specifically designed to encourage saving. In contrast to a payroll account, where the money is often used for daily transactions, a savings account is used to set money aside for the future. One of the main benefits of a savings account is the security it provides, as well as the ability to earn interest on the money you deposit.

When you deposit money into a savings account, the bank pays you interest. This interest is a percentage of your deposited amount and is usually credited annually or monthly. The interest rate may vary depending on the bank's guidelines and the general economic situation. Higher interest rates are often offered on savings accounts where the money is tied up for a longer period of time or where a minimum balance is required.

Savings accounts are flexible in the sense that they allow deposits and withdrawals, but they may have some restrictions depending on the account type. For example, some savings accounts may have limits on how often you can withdraw money without losing interest, while others require you to maintain a certain minimum balance to avoid fees.

A savings account can also serve as a financial cushion. It's useful for unexpected expenses or as a resource when you're saving for bigger goals like a vacation, a car purchase, or a down payment on a house. A savings account is a financial solution for anyone who wants to build a stable financial future. It provides a safe place to store money while offering the opportunity to increase the money through interest.
