  • It doesn't look like a common word. Have you searched for its meaning? Commented Jan 8, 2016 at 13:55
  • Yes I tried searching it. But I think it is related to interest rates.

    I wonder if it's a standard term, but as far as I get from Google, it seemingly refers to a type of time (fixed) deposit that automatically carries over all the principal and interest into the next round. Maybe you should ask your bank or advisor. Commented Jan 8, 2016 at 14:49

It's a term invented by the financial industry. 元金 means the capital (as opposed to the interest), and 成長型 means the type of financial product is "growth". I.e. a financial product that "attempts to grow your capital".

A similar term is 元金確保型 which normally means it's a more conservative asset allocation.

(This is completely unrelated from the language perspective but be wary of these mutual funds Japanese banks push on you, almost all of them are a terrible deal).
