Arquia Banca offers 3% on a 12-month deposit

Arquia Banca is offering 3% annual equivalent interest on a 12-month deposit in Spain.

The offer is aimed at bringing in savings transferred from other financial institutions, and customers can apply until October 30.

Deposits must be between €10,000 and €200,000, with interest paid when the term ends.

Customers cannot withdraw part of the money, and cancelling the whole deposit means losing all interest.

Spain’s deposit guarantee scheme covers up to €100,000 per customer at Arquia.

Several banks are competing with similar or higher rates: EBN Banco offers 3.10%, while MyInvestor, WiZink and Pibank offer 3%.

Banks are raising savings rates as the European Central Bank approaches a meeting where it could raise its main interest rates by 0.25 percentage points to 2.75%.
