Ive been researching high yield savings accounts for some time. Found an online bank, venturebankdirect.com that is offering 3.8% APY with no minimums. Set up was fast and easy. They are also FDIC insured which is a major concern of mine.

If you are searching for a high Interest savings account within Australia, two additional resources you may want to consider are www.raboplus.com.au and www.macquarieprivatewealth.com.au

However, as Loyalis rightly pointed out, "just because a bank account has the highest yield, it doesn't necessarily mean it's best for you! Make sure and research minimums, customer service history, and any other factors you feel are important before choosing a savings account."
