Conditions apply. Offer excludes corporate, institutional and government customers. If you are on a special rate and your Term Deposit rolls over automatically, the Term Deposit may be automatically re-invested at a lower rate than the current interest rate.

1 You should carefully consider or seek advice from the Bank whether you will need funds prior to maturity. You cannot break your Term Deposit (whether in whole or part) prior to maturity unless the Bank assesses that hardship applies and provides its written consent. If you require any further information about breaking a Term Deposit, please contact us. In the event the Bank provides its consent, and your deposit is broken before maturity, your interest will be adjusted in accordance with the rate applicable to the reduced term.

2 Once your fixed term ends, you can withdraw your funds via bank cheque or direct credit into a nominated transaction account.
