statistics

  • In July 2025, the interest rates on new deposit agreements continued to decline for both households and non-financial corporations (NFCs), excepted for NFCs' term deposits with maturities over two years, for which the rate remained stable.

  • The average remuneration of outstanding bank deposits held by households and NFCs declined slightly to 1.48%. While the remuneration of households' deposits remained stable, it decreased by 4 basis points for NFCs, due to a decline in rates on overnight deposits and term deposits with maturities of less than two years. In contrast, the remuneration of term deposits with maturities over two years increased.
