Why choose a 5-year term?

A 5-year term deposit is the longest standard offering from most Australian banks. Rates can be strong, particularly when set against expectations of future rate cuts.

Before committing, consider whether you'll truly have no need for these funds for 5 years. Breaking a term deposit early usually means paying a penalty, which can significantly erode returns.
