Answer: Fixed (time) deposit

Concept: Fixed deposit (time deposit) – a function of a commercial bank.

Explanation: Accepting deposits is a primary function of a commercial bank. In a fixed deposit a lump sum amount is deposited for a fixed period (here one year). It cannot normally be withdrawn before maturity, and the bank pays a higher rate of interest than on savings deposits. The longer the period, the higher the rate of interest.
