A Recurring Deposit (RD) is a type of savings account where individuals can regularly deposit a fixed amount of money at regular intervals (monthly, quarterly, etc.). Over time, these regular deposits accumulate with interest, and the account holder receives a lump sum amount at the end of the predefined period. However some banks in Nepal, deposit interest earned on normal savings accounts either monthly, quarterly or at maturity as per predetermined agreement.
