Deposit Accounts


Tell me about:

  • Current Account-i (CA-i) offers a convenient facility for managing your everyday financial transactions digitally, and stay theft-protected.
  • CA-i is a highly liquid account; it allows many withdrawals and unlimited deposits.
  • CA-i is accessible through cheques, ATM machines, debit cards, online banking, and of course over-the-counter.
  • Some types of CA-i offer temporary excess to avoid bounced cheques when you overdraw your account.
  • Cashline-i, a line of credit financing facility, is accessible through the PrimeRich CA-i.
  • Profit rate of CA-i is relatively lower than other deposit accounts.
  • For more information about CA-i, please check MBSB Bank’s Current Account-i.


  • Foreign Currency Current Account-i (FCA-i) enables you to perform transactions with foreign currencies, and finance overseas education. It is also helpful for corporations requiring foreign currencies for international trade.
  • FCA-i does not offer chequebook, ATM card, or online banking.
  • FCA-i is not connected to temporary excess or Cashline-i.
  • FCA-i does not offer any profit.
  • For more information about FCA-i, please check MBSB Bank’s Foreign Currency Current Account-i.


  • Savings Account-i is suitable for short-term saving, such as buying a car or going for vacation, as well as for emergency coverage.
  • Savings Account-i is a liquid account; it allows a reasonable number of withdrawals and unlimited deposits.
  • Savings Account-i is accessible through passbook, ATM machines, debit cards, online banking, and of course over-the-counter.
  • Profit rate of Savings Account is usually higher than that of Current Account-i.
  • For more information about Savings Account-i, please check MBSB Bank’s Savings Account-i.


  • Term Deposit-i provides a risk-free short-term and medium-term investment. Tenure ranges from one to sixty month.
  • Upon opening a Term Deposit-i, Customer agrees not to withdraw his/her funds during the tenure. Partial withdrawal is not allowed either.
  • No profit is payable for premature withdrawal of funds prior to maturity date.
  • Profit rate of Term Deposit-i is the highest of deposit accounts. As you may have guessed, this comes in return of locking up your money for the tenure period.
  • Term Deposit-i is ideal for retirement financial planning. Customer may spread out the funds evenly over several certificates of Term Deposit-i, maturing at successive dates (Laddering Strategy). For example, the first certificate matures after one year, the second after two years, etc. With that, Customer gets a lump sum for covering his/her expenses every year.
