Commonwealth Bank term deposits review

As Commonwealth Bank is the biggest bank in Australia, it may not always need to offer the highest term deposit rates on the market compared to smaller providers with lower overheads.

CBA also offers a range of other financial products, including home loans, credit cards and savings accounts. If you’re the type of customer who likes all their financial products to be with the same bank, CBA may be helpful in that regard.

Customers who rely on face-to-face contact with their bank may also benefit from choosing a CBA term deposit. As it is Australia’s biggest bank, this means customers have access to over 1,000 branches, including in rural areas.

This page compares a range of products from selected providers and not all products or providers are included in the comparison. There is no such thing as a 'one- size-fits-all' financial product. The best loan, credit card, superannuation account or bank account for you might not be the best choice for someone else. Before selecting any financial product you should read the fine print carefully, including the product disclosure statement, target market determination fact sheet or terms and conditions document and obtain professional financial advice on whether a product is right for you and your finances.
