Do you use a Current Account for your everyday business banking needs? Current Accounts offer several benefits, such as high transactional capacity, overdraft facilities, easy access to funds, and online banking facilities. However, one thing that Current Accounts do not provide is interest on your deposited funds. This is where Kotak’s ActivMoney Current Accounts play an important role.
The ActivMoney facility is a simple yet innovative feature that ensures your balance earns interest while remaining accessible for everyday transactions. This benefit can be game-changing, especially for businesses, startups, and individuals who keep substantial balances in their Current Accounts.
Here is a detailed insight into the features and benefits of ActivMoney Current Accounts and how easy it is to open and manage them.
How Do The Activmoney Current Accounts Help You Earn Returns?
Here's how it works: Whenever your Current Account balance exceeds a certain amount, the excess funds are automatically transferred into a fixed deposit. This fixed deposit then earns interest up to 7%* p.a. and helps you boost your earnings.
The available balance for transactions is the combined amount in your Current Account and fixed deposit. The best part is that you get to retain your liquidity; you can withdraw your funds anytime without incurring penalties for premature withdrawals.
The ActivMoney Current Accounts are designed to offer maximum convenience and flexibility. With this facility, you can make the most of your money and earn higher returns without having to worry about managing your investments on a daily basis.
