NAB Farm Management Deposit

NAB Farm Management Deposit

The NAB Farm Management Deposit is a fixed interest rate; fixed term investment that generally pays higher interest than "at call" accounts.

NAB Farm Management Deposit is a tax-linked risk management tool, which can assist primary producers to make provision for fluctuations in earnings caused by adverse economic and seasonal changes and to receive concessional tax treatment in the process of making such provisions of earnings. 

NAB recommends that you ask your tax adviser or financial consultant to indicate what the taxation consequences might be in respect of a NAB Farm Management Deposit.

Eligibility criteria apply to primary producers under the Farm Management Deposit scheme.
