Description

Lower interest rates have been a cause for celebration for many people in recent months. However, conservative savers with money on term deposit won’t be quite so enthusiastic. They were sitting pretty 18 months ago, with the six-month term deposit rate offering a yield of six per cent, the highest since 2008. Since then, rates have slumped more than 40 per cent to under 3.5 per cent. That’s a hefty pay cut, if your term deposit nest egg is a key source of income.
