Also sometimes known as an ‘offset transaction facility’, this kind of account lets you reduce the interest you pay on a loan, by using your savings to ‘offset’ that interest.
Such an account can reduce the principal component of your homeloan fast than a Principal & Interest loan.
The offset amount can be re-drawn for emergencies if necessary.
