Saving in a bank is a very important step in managing personal finances. By saving at a bank, you can prepare for various needs in the future, such as the need for marriage, education, buying/building/renovating a house, to emergency fund needs.
Saving at a bank also has various advantages to consider when saving money. Let's read the advantages of saving at a bank in this article so that you understand and are more confident about saving at a bank.
Advantages of Saving at the Bank
Here are some of the advantages of saving at a bank that you can understand before saving at a bank.
-
Guaranteed by LPS
Saving at a bank provides better security protection than keeping money at home. Banks have strict security systems, such as protection against theft and loss of money.
Deposits at the bank are also guaranteed by the Deposit Insurance Agency (LPS), so if the bank where you save goes bankrupt, you will not lose the funds in your savings because LPS will guarantee them according to the terms and conditions that apply.
Before saving at a bank, ensure the bank you choose has permission from the OJK and is guaranteed by the LPS, so you can feel calm and confident that your funds are safe.
-
Earn Interest
One of the main advantages of saving at a bank is the growth of your funds. Banks provide interest or returns on your savings balance. The bank's interest will help increase your savings' value over time. The bigger and longer you save, the bigger the profit you get.
At Bank MAS, you can choose SIMASTER savings with competitive tiered interest, so the bigger your savings balance, the bigger the interest you can get.
-
Transaction Ease

Several banks also provide online banking services such as mobile and internet banking, allowing you to access your savings account anytime and anywhere.

Help Manage Finances
Saving at a bank helps you manage your finances in a more organized and planned manner. Having a savings account lets you separate funds used for daily needs from savings funds. You can also check your savings funds' incoming and outgoing flows through neatly recorded transaction history or account mutations.
This will help you understand your income and expenses in your savings, making it easier for you to budget and control expenses.
