Loan Against Fixed Deposit

Loan against Deutsche Bank FDs

Deutsche Bank offers overdrafts against Fixed Deposits that adds liquidity to the deposit. While your deposit continues to earn interest, you can fulfil temporary financial constraints with the amount borrowed through this facility.

Finance can be availed against fixed deposits held in the name of relatives, friends or family members. This offers you the most instant and convenient line of credit against your fixed deposits. You pay interest on only the amount utilized via overdraft and don’t lose interest on your FD. The interest rate is pegged 2 or 3 percent higher than what you earn in your deposit.

Here are some of the benefits of loans against Deutsche Bank FDs:

  • The tenor could be from 7 days to 365 days

  • Depositors pay penal interest of 2% over the interest they earn

  • If the FD is in the name of a third party, 3% penal interest over the deposit rate

  • Rs. 25,000 is the minimum amount that can be borrowed

  • Upto 95% of the fixed deposit can be taken as overdraft

Conclusion:

Deutsche Bank Fixed Deposits offer good returns combined with safety for depositors. They deliver relatively stable returns up to 10.61% cumulatively and come with the advantages of liquidity and easy opening procedures. Fixed deposits can be conveniently opened online through the bank’s website and an overdraft facility allows you to withdraw up to 95 percent at attractive interest rates.
