High interest rates get a lot of hype (including from us at CNBC Select ), but they aren't always the best choice for everyone. In some situations, accepting a lower savings return, or annual percentage yield ( APY ), can actually make more sense. This might be the case if you need quick access to your cash, have a short savings timeline, struggle to meet account requirements, or you simply prefer banking with a well-known institution. In these scenarios, flexibility can matter more than squeezing out a higher return. Here's more on when flexibility trumps a higher APY. You need quick access to cash If you rely on quick access to your savings for essentials like rent but your high-yield savings account makes you wait days for a transfer to your checking account, it's not worth it.
