Co-author: Michelle NortonIf you want the benefits of long-term deposit interest rates but don’t want to lock away all your savings at once, term deposit laddering may be for you…
If you invest in term deposits, chances are you may have just one or two large amounts of money in just one or two deposits. Sometimes, you may not get the best interest rate because you’re not willing to lock the money away for too long – whatever that means for you.
The solution to this problem may be a ladder investment strategy instead. Term deposit laddering allows you to have access to your money at regular intervals, but take advantage of the higher interest rates available for longer term deposits.How does term deposit laddering work?
Instead of putting larger chunks of money into one term deposit, with term deposit laddering you break the money into bundles and put it into longer term investments one at a time. If, for example, that’s five chunks over five years, you’d invest the first chunk for five years and gradually roll the others in every year. In the meantime, put the remaining money into shorter term investments until you’re ready to roll them into the ladder. Once all the money is invested, you’ll have equal portions coming up for renewal regularly.
It’s a bit like singing a harmony in rounds; someone is always starting whilst another is finishing.What are the advantages of a ladder investment strategy?
*Interest rates may be better for longer periods of time, boosting your returns.
*It’s a structured way to invest.
*This gives you more flexibility than keeping all your investments in one or two large, but shorter terms.
*With chunks of money coming up for renewal regularly, you have an increased chance of capturing better rates as they arise.
*You have longer term guarantees as to how much you’d earn on your money than if you had shorter periods. If you’re living off the income from term deposits that certainty can be reassuring.
*When each rung of the ladder is reached and the money released you can choose to go elsewhere.
The main disadvantage of a ladder investment strategy is that you’re locked in for a longer time, which won’t help if you need all of your money unexpectedly.And the disadvantages of term deposit laddering?
*If you choose long term deposits you could be stuck in a poor rate for a long time. Whilst 4.50% might look like a decent term deposit interest rate today, who knows if it will be in five years’ time. It’s unlikely, but if banks were offering 7% in two years’ time you’d be annoyed about being tied in for five years.
*Term deposit laddering involves more paperwork than putting all your money into one or two term deposits or a notice saver account.Help: A ladder investment strategy isn’t enough, how do I budget?
If staggering your term deposit isn’t enough to help out with managing your savings, it might be helpful to take a step back and look at how you can budget to make some savings. That way, locking some money away won’t become such a stressful situation and you can enjoy looking forward to those returns!6 ways to cut your weekly spending:

Whatever strategy you decide on, ensure that you are getting a comparatively good return. You can read Canstar’s latest Term Deposit Award report and compare term deposit rates here. Term deposits 101 starts with understanding what a term deposit is and how it works when it comes to saving. What is a term deposit and how does it work?
A term deposit is a deposit held at a financial institution, bank, building society or credit union for a fixed amount of time, known as a term. When the money is deposited, the customer understands that the money is there for the pre-determined period which usually ranges from 1 month to 5 years. Typically, the money can only be withdrawn at the end of the period, however it can be accessed earlier but penalties apply. This is usually partial or full forfeiture of the interest rate the term deposit would have earned.
Term deposits are popular with investors who prefer the safety of this type of ‘money minder’, as opposed to the fluctuations of, say, the share market. Many investors also use term deposits as a part of their investment mix.How do I apply for a term deposit?
To apply for a term deposit you follow much the same process as you would when you apply for a normal bank account. It’s even easier if you apply for a New Zealand term deposit at the same institution you already bank with. Once you have earmarked the amount of money you want to invest and the interest rate you are locking in, it is simply a matter of filling out a form.What if I want to break my term deposit?
If you want to break your term deposit, you need to first understand you could be heading for an uphill battle with your bank. The Banking Ombudsman of New Zealand points out that financial service providers are not legally required to allow customers to access their funds before the fixed term. Some providers offer a “cooling off” period, when you first open a term deposit account – a period of time where you can cancel your tern deposit and have your principal repaid ­– but without interest. If you can demonstrate you are in hardship, you might be able to withdraw your funds without giving notice.Pros and cons of term deposits include:PROSCONSYou receive a specified interest rate at the end of the term, regardless of whether rates drop in the meantimeOnline savings accounts sometimes offer higher interest rates.Savings are locked away, preventing the temptation to spend it all.Your money is not available for use at any time. You pay a penalty if you need to withdraw your money early.Low-risk investment – less volatility in the term deposit market.The real rate of return is not as good as it seems. To calculate your actual profit from a term deposit, subtract the current inflation rate from the interest rate paid. For example, if inflation was running at 1% and your term deposit was paying 3%; your “real” rate of return is 2%New Zealand term deposits – learn the market rates
Before you agree to open up a term deposit account, it pays to know the rates financial providers are offering, so you can see where your money will have the best chance at growing.Read the Investment Statement
As with all financial products, it’s imperative you read the Investment Statement so you know exactly where you stand on a number of issues. For example, it’s important to find out whether the provider offers a cooling off period. Even if you have previously taken out a term deposit with the same bank, make sure you still read the document, as conditions can change and you don’t want to be caught out.
Pay particular attention to Maturity conditions, Prepayment penalties and, of course, any fees. Note that the overall return on investment will be affected by any fees you pay, whether at setup or at maturity.
If you think there is a chance you might need to break your term deposit early, then you might want to choose a shorter term, or to explore other options, such as a savings account.Enjoy reading this article?Canstar Term Deposits Late
