This is an investment instrument, common in the US. You lend your money to an institution for a short period of time (6 months) and in exchange you get a higher yield than in a typical savings account. You cannot touch the money in this 6 months, you pay taxes on the accrued interest, you get the difference as profit. According to wikipedia, the German noun for certificate of deposit is Sparbrief.

I haven’t found any Sparbrief offering on scalable capital, trade republic or comdirect, nor on the internet and wonder if I’m doing something wrong.

If you happen to be in a similar situation, what cds would you recommend? Is there a webpage that lets me compare?
