Savings Account Definition  Account designed to hold money not spent on current consumption  Earns interest, but often at low interest rates  More liquid than other savings tools (except checking accounts) Features  Effective for storing emergency funds  May require a minimum balance or have a limited number of withdrawals each month  Also known as a share account at a credit union

Money Market Account Definition  Account that usually has minimum balance requirements and tiered interest rates  Tiered interest rates— the amount of interest earns depends on the account balance  Which would typically earn a higher interest rate? An account with a $10,000 balance or a $2,500 balance?  Less liquid than checking and savings accounts because of minimum balance requirement and transaction limits Features  Usually have to deposit a minimum amount to open the account  Typically $1,000  Similar to savings account but earns higher interest and has higher minimum balance/deposit requirements

Certificate of Deposit (CD) Definition  Account that is used for a fixed period of time and allows restricted access to the funds  Interest varies depending on time and amount of money deposited  Least liquid savings tool  Why would a depository institution typically offer higher interest rates for CD’s with a longer time period or more money invested? Features  Deposits must be held for a certain length of time (usually 7 days to 10 years)  Deposits can range from $100 to $250,000  If funds are held for the designated time period, then there is limited risk and no fees

How do you pick which tool to use?  Consider these factors when determining the most appropriate savings tool for your financial goal: Amount of funds available Purpose of money saved When money is needed Liquidity Interest Savings tool requirements Fees
