I read the papers today and noticed the weekly report by CBN on the average deposit and lending rates of banks in the country. This is an extract of the savings and time deposit rates being offered to customers.

Sterling Bank = 3.6%

Access bank = 7.6%9
Citi Bank = 7.69%
Diamond bank = 11.20%
Ecobank = 7.5%
Enterprise Bank = 6.74%
FCMB = 8.5%

First Bank of Nigeria = 7.68%
Heritage bank = 10.25%
Guaranty Trust Bank = 7.77%
Keystone Bank = 10.74%
Mainstreet Bank = 7.00%
Skye Bank = 5.37%

    You can try paying money into it and see what happens. I think dormant accounts can be reactivated that way or also by filling an account reactivation form. I guess the best thing to to is first take the account number to the customer service and tell them you want to deposit before you actually deposit.

    Just bring your money to the bank and apply through customer service for the account. Inquire of their rates first before filling the application.

    I believe fixed deposit rate has to do with the amount one is fixing. Can I known the range or looking at 10million



    Re: CBN report on Average deposit rates of Nigerian banks as at June14 2013 Reply by Felix Okoli on Sunday February 16, 2014 at 23:16:0:

    Yes you are right. Some banks offer flexible interest rates depending on the capital. With N10m, you are sure to get up to 10% from most banks. You cna go to Diamond, Fidelity, FCMB or others that value high networth investors.

Please what is the current savings rate and fixed deposit rates in Nigeria following the change of MPR from 12% to 13%?

It will vary from bank to bank but on a general note, it is more likely going to make banks also try to attract more funds by increasing fixed and savings deposit rates.

opening a fixed deposit account with the sum of 100.000 how much will the individual gain as an interest



Re: CBN report on Average deposit rates of Nigerian banks as at June14 2013 Reply by Felix Okoli on Monday February 2, 2015 at 16:44:5:

it depends on the interest rate which vary from bank to bank. If the bank for instance offers a 7% interest rate, then the 100k will earn an interest of N7k per year.
