Term Deposit
A term deposit or Guaranteed Investment Certificate (GIC) is a safe, secure, and guaranteed way of investing your money for a set length of time.
Many term deposit investors use a laddered approach, which means they divide their investment into several term lengths with different maturity dates. By using this strategy, you will enjoy the benefits of flexibility and reduce the impact of interest rate fluctuations.
