Introduction    Features    Target Client    Service Channels    Guide

Introduction

As a general savings product, large-sum certificate of deposit is a book-entry large-sum certificate of deposit that our bank issues to investors.

Features

1. Better liquidity: Compared to regular fixed deposits, large-sum certificate of deposit can be transferred and pledged. Better liquidity makes it more favorable to banks and investors. 

2. Market-oriented pricing: The threshold of large-sum certificate of deposit is higher than those of regular fixed deposits. With the minimum purchase amount and interest rate higher than those of regular fixed deposits, it is more close to market interest rate.

3. More flexible: When withdrawing ahead of schedule, the interest will be calculated based on multiple brackets, ensuring the flexibility of assets allocation at one hand, and higher interest revenue on the other hand.
