Savings account;
This is a basic type of financial product that allows you to deposit money and also earn a reasonable percentage of interest.
It could be personal savings or joint savings account.
It is also possible to open accounts for your child, which greatly impacts the management of their finances from a tender age.
Current account;
This is a type of bank account that is designed for daily transactions, due to its higher transactional limits, mostly interest free and requires a higher amount of minimum balance at the time of opening the account.
Corporate account;
This is a type of bank account that is specifically designed for business owners. It is used to keep business funds safe for a longer period of time, to manage daily transactions and to also invest dividends and extra revenue.
