FD Interest Rate: Many small finance banks offer fixed deposit interest rates that are higher than the bigger public and private sector banks. Like other types of banks in India, the RBI regulates and governs SFBs. However, the customer should make sure that the small finance bank you are investing in is covered under the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC)’s insurance of Rs 5 lakh, which includes both principal and interest.
