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 The early withdrawal fee is calculated as the amount withdrawn multiplied by 2% and prorated for the number of days invested.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.
