Q:

Saving accounts usually offer ___ interest rates than checking accounts.

A) Higher B) Lower
C) Equal D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Higher

Explanation:

A savings account is the most basic type of account at a bank or credit union, allowing you to deposit money, keep the funds safe, and withdraw funds as needed. Savings accounts typically pay interest on your deposits, which helps you grow your money, but rates are relatively low on these low-risk accounts.


A checking account is a deposit account held at a financial institution that allows withdrawals and deposits. Also called demand accounts or transactional accounts, checking accounts are very liquid and can be accessed using checks, automated teller machines and electronic debits, among other methods.
