Prepayment
Prepayment of your investment amount (i.e. withdrawal in part or full prior to maturity) will be allowed by us. However, any amounts withdrawn before maturity will incur the following interest rate reduction:
- if the interest rate on your Account is higher than 3% p.a., the interest rate reduction is 3% p.a. for 12 months or the full term of the investment if that is 12 months or less;
- if the interest rate on your Account is 3% p.a. or less, the interest rate is reduced to 0.10% p.a. for 12 months or the full term of the investment if that is 12 months or less.
Reinvestment
At maturity, interest rates, investment terms, minimum deposit amounts, interest payment frequencies and interest payment options available in branch or over the phone are available for reinvestment of Term Deposits opened online. If you do not give us instructions at maturity, your investment will be reinvested for the same term (or the closest available term) at the applicable standard interest rate for that term available in branch / over the phone at the time, not a special interest rate (which may be higher).
