Near monies are savings, but there are several different types of savings. Types of savings: - Standard savings accounts: They pay an interest, but lack check-writing privileges. These are relatively liquid.
- Certificates of deposit (CDs): They require a minimum deposit for a specified time period and pay higher interest rates. They are less liquid than savings accounts.
- Money market funds: These funds are invested in negotiable, short-term assets like U.S, treasury bills or commercial paper.
- Overnight Eurodollars: Accounts denominated in U.S. dollars that are held in foreign banks.
- Overnight repurchase agreements: Interest-paying business savings accounts that are temporary repositories of non-interest paying business checking account balances.
