    • Central Distribution – The interest arrived at is credited to one central account, which can be any one of the participating accounts or a separate account.
    • Even Direct Distribution – Interest reward is evenly spread across all accounts with positive balances
    • Even Distribution – The interest is evenly distributed among the participating accounts.
    • Fair Share Distribution – If the interest is positive, it is distributed among the positive contributors in the ratio of their contribution and if the interest is negative, it is distributed among the negative contributors in the ratio of their contribution.
    • No Reallocation – No interest is paid back to the child accounts
    • Reverse Fair Share Distribution – If the interest is positive, it is distributed among the negative contributors in the ratio of their contribution and if the interest is negative, it is distributed among the positive contributors in the ratio of their contribution.
