A Certificate of Deposit is a special type of deposit account that can be opened by any customer. The customer will deposit a large sum of money with the bank for a predetermined period of time (Usually in months or years). The bank will offer a good interest rate to the customer for parking his/her money long-term with them. The customer wouldn't break his deposit mid term and keep it until maturity because if he does so, he will be charged a penalty for doing so.
