What is a savings account?

A savings account is – as the name suggests – a bank account into which you deposit money to accrue interest and build your savings.

Savings accounts are popular and useful for just about anyone who’s trying to save towards a goal. Some investors, such as those with a self-managed super fund, use a savings account as part of their investment portfolio to guarantee receiving some kind of return on their money.
