Bajaj Finserv Asset Management has launched a new financial product for retail investors looking to get returns on their idle savings. Finserv Savings+ offering seeks to bridge the gap between traditional savings accounts and more lucrative investment options, said the company.
Savings+ allows investors to identify surplus cash in their savings accounts and seamlessly invest it in Bajaj Finserv AMC Liquid Fund and Overnight Fund. These funds promise competitive returns while maintaining the liquidity that consumers expect from savings accounts.
Liquid funds delivered an impressive 7.17 per cent return between July 2023 and June 2024, outperforming average savings account interest rates. Investors can also benefit from T+1 day liquidity, with an option for instant redemption of up to Rs 50,000 or 90 per cent of invested value, whichever is lower, within minutes.
“Savings+ is a simple and innovative product for retail investors to manage their surplus money while getting the advantage of competitive risk-adjusted returns and liquidity,” said Ganesh Mohan, chief executive officer of Bajaj Finserv Asset Management.
