Please be aware that the rate of return offered by NBS is based on a specific term selected when an investment is made. NBS expects that the funds will be deposited for the nominated term. NBS is not obliged to accept a request for early withdrawal (in part or full) of a term investment. 

If we do decide to accept such a request, we may charge an early withdrawal fee. The early withdrawal fee is calculated as the amount withdrawn multiplied by 2% and prorated for the number of days invested.  The early withdrawal fee will be deducted from the after-tax net interest earned.

NBS is not a registered bank.

Not for Profit Fees

There are NO transaction fees applied to NBS Not for Profit banking

If you wish to make an early withdrawal on your Term Investment, we may reduce the returns on the withdrawn funds by 2.00%; however your returns will not go below 0.05% p.a.
