1. What is the deposit interest rate?
Customers who want to deposit savings in banks need to master the concept of deposit interest rates as well as regularly update bank interest rate fluctuations to maximize profits.
The concept of deposit interest rate: Deposit interest rate is a term used by banks to refer to the interest rate banks pay to customers when depositing money, helping savings earn interest over time. Mobilization interest rate and deposit interest rate are two completely equivalent terms.
Concept of deposit interest rate ceiling: Each bank will have its own deposit interest rate. However, the interest rate is still subject to the maximum interest rate The State Bank (SBV) regulates (ceiling interest rates). This is to control inflation and ensure fair competition between banks.
The way to calculate deposit interest rates is quite simple according to the following formula:
Interest = (Deposit amount x Deposit interest rate) x Number of deposit periods/12 months
In there:
Deposit amount: Is the initial deposit amount by the customer.
Deposit interest rate: It is the percentage that the bank pays to the customer on the deposit amount.
Number of sending periods: Is the number of months of deposit.
12 months: Is the number of months in a year.
For example:
Customer A deposits 100 million VND in savings with a deposit interest rate of 5%/year for a 12-month term. Thus, after 12 months of maturity, customer A will receive the following interest:
Interest = (100,000,000 x 5%) x 12/12 = 5,000,000 VND
Mobilization interest rate and deposit interest rate are both terms that refer to the interest customers receive when depositing savings
