Fixed deposits have a fixed period of maturity
and are referred to as time deposits. These are
deposits for a fixed term, i.e., period of time
ranging from a few days to a few years. These
are neither payable on demand nor they enjoy
cheque facilities.

types:
(i) Primary deposits (initial cash deposits by the
public) and (ii) Secondary deposits (deposits
that arise due to loans given by the banks which
are assumed to be redeposited in the bank.)
Money creation by commercial banks is
determined by two factors namely (i) Primary
deposits i.e. initial cash deposits and (ii) Legal
Reserve Ratio (LRR), i.e., minimum ratio of
deposits which is legally compulsory for the
commercial banks to keep as cash in liquid
form. Broadly when a bank receives cash
deposits from the public, it keeps a fraction of
deposits as cash reserve (LRR) and uses the
remaining amount for giving loans. In the
process of lending money, banks are able to
create credit through secondary deposits many
times more than initial deposits (primary
deposits).

It means the multiple by which total deposit
increases due to initial (primary) deposit.
Money multiplier (or credit multiplier) is the
inverse of Legal Reserve Ratio (LRR). If LRR is
10%, i.e., 10/100or 0.1, then money multiplier =
1/0.1 = 10.
