Top 5 most profitable deposits in 2024

A deposit is an amount that a bank client places in a deposit account to keep their savings safe. Deposit yields are extremely low — at the time of writing this article, the maximum interest rate did not even reach 15% per annum. Therefore, the main purpose of deposits is to protect funds from inflation.

What are bank deposits?

Differences between bank deposits

All bank deposits differ in the following parameters:

Term. In this case, deposits can be time deposits (i.e., opened for a specific period) and demand deposits (i.e., indefinite). Currently, the highest rates are offered on short-term deposits — for 3 or 4 months.
Currency. Clients can store their money in rubles or foreign currency. For example, at T-Bank you can open a deposit in 27 currencies. The highest yield will, of course, be on ruble deposits, since the ruble is a more stable currency for credit institutions.
Option to top up. Such deposits can be topped up throughout the entire term of the agreement.
Option for partial withdrawal of funds. In this case, you can withdraw money from the account without dropping below the minimum threshold. The yield on such deposits is extremely low.
Interest rate. As we mentioned earlier, it depends on many factors: term, currency, top-up and partial withdrawal options. The most important parameter affecting deposit yield is the Central Bank's key rate. It is what regulates the interest on deposits, accounts, and loans.

How to open a bank deposit?

The procedure for opening a deposit in various credit institutions is practically identical. To open a deposit, for example, at VTB, you need to:

go to the bank's website or mobile application;
go to the "Services" section;
select "Savings";
select the deposit that best suits your conditions;
click "Details" and "Open deposit";
enter the amount;
