Interest

If you are wondering what the interest rate is on your current account or savings account at the moment, or want to know the balance from which a negative interest rate applies, read on to see the latest interest rates.

 

Negative interest

From 1 January 2021, you will need to pay negative interest if the balance of all of your current and savings accounts totals more than €500,000. We determine your balance class by adding up the balances on all of your current and savings accounts. Joint accounts are included proportionately in the calculation.

Balance class (total balance on current and savings accounts)* Interest rate*
€0 to €100,000 0%
€100,000 to €500,000 0%
Above €500,000 -0.50%

*Balance classes and interest rates are subject to change.
