A Certificate of Deposit (CD) makes a great holiday gift
CDs are a low-risk way to save for future goals and can be a thoughtful gift for a loved one. A Certificate of Deposit account is an easy way to save money for a child since it locks your funds for a specific time and pays a fixed interest rate.
Gifting a CD can help your grandchild start learning early about the value of money and give them financial literacy skills. Setting up a CD for a child when they're young gives the money years to grow and build up interest and helps give them a head start as they enter adulthood.
