SAVINGS ACCOUNTS
Savings
accounts. A deposit account held at a bank or other financial
institution that provides principal security and a modest interest. Savings
accounts are generally for money that you don't intend to use for daily
expenses. Because savings accounts almost always pay lower interest rates than
Treasury bills and certificates of deposit, they should not be used for
long-term holding periods. Their main advantages are liquidity and superior
rates compared to checking accounts.
