Corporate Deposits are
loan arrangements where a
specific amount of funds is
placed on deposit under the name
of the account holder. The money
placed on deposit earns a fixed
rate of interest, according to
the terms and conditions that
govern the account. The actual
amount of the fixed rate can be
influenced by such factors at
the type of currency involved in
the deposit, the duration set in
place for the deposit, and the
location where the deposit is
made.
