In my country, until the mid-2000s, the Postal institution enabled its savers to partially or completely freeze their balances for a specific period of time, provided that the freeze on the amount would not be lifted regardless of whatever reasons, even in if the person’s death. This product was not available in banks as I recall, but since the 2000s this product has been completely abandoned. When I think about the concept, I find it very useful and it can serve the financial institution and the saver as well, especially those who want to secure their savings so that they never think about using it. I think that there are many reasons that might encourage a person to do this according to his assessment of his needs in the medium and long term. The financial institution will also benefit from the liquidity that it will accumulate from the frozen balances, in addition to the possibility to impose fees for the service.
I know that it is possible to secure a deposit in the bank with any type of asset, but with the possibility of permanent disposal of it, meaning that its owner cannot ask the bank to lock it.
What I would like to ask is whether this product exists in the banking system of your country and why, in your opinion, are there central banks that do not allow it? Also, is this possible on online virtual banks?
My personal expectation is that this will be possible with some small local banks or state postal institutions. I also expect that this is not allowed in other laws because I have not heard of it much.
What you said is absolutely correct and the current situation in my country matches your post. In my country now it is very risky to keep bank money and bank savings. This has happened several times in my country can keep money in bank but not withdraw, can save in bank but can't withdraw that savings, it still remains in my country. I have talked about my Bangladesh here, if you search my Bangladesh banking status you will see that the banking system of this country is most corrupt. People of my country are now collecting money at home without keeping money in the bank, they are also not keeping money in the bank because if money is kept in the bank it is not the owner but the government officials who steal it. And embezzled money from the bank. But we who are involved in bitcoin we don't believe in bank money I always believe in bitcoin that's why I invest in bitcoin.
