This way the savings are saved up into a single bank account which can be accessed whenever and wherever. When issued in a Canadian bank institution them the savings can be accessed that is the money can be deposited or withdrawn from any other similar bank institution by the account holder. This is one of the advantages when money is deposited in any of these bank institutions.

This money whenever accessed and any transactions take place in the current account or savings account or any other such types of account then the account holder gets notified of these actions. A Canadian deposit account is nothing but an account in which a withdrawal made or amount kept at a banking institution is known by the account holder. These transactions that are the withdrawals made or the money put is recorded on the Canadian bank’s books. The balance which is left is recorded as a liability for the bank and it also acts as a proof to the amount which is held by the bank to the customer.
