October 29, 2014 – On the occasion of the coming World Savings Day, Telenor banka included a vista savings in its offer. In this way, the customer can save in dinars at the interest rate of seven percent on the annual level, with the monthly accrual of calculated interest.
Marko Carević, Telenor banka Marketing Director
The customer performs on his own the whole process of registering for and opening a savings account in Telenor banka, over the Internet, without having to go to Telenor shop. It’s possible to open more than one savings account.
“In line with the recommendations of the National Bank of Serbia, Telenor banka supported savings in the national currency. Customers will have a possibility of making a higher yield from the interest on a vista dinar savings compared to the average market savings offers. Since the user’s funds are available to him at every moment, a vista savings are a flexible form of savings. It’s possible to daily compute interest on deposited funds and have it accrue at the end of each month or at the termination of savings, when the money is transferred to the multi-currency current account”, pointed out Marko Carević, Telenor banka Marketing Director.
Before contracting a savings account, in the application the user can enter in the calculator the amount he wants to deposit and thus get the insight in the computing of interest he will make on such funds. Each month, through regular monthly payments, the user can transfer a selected amount from his current to savings account, as well as have the insight in his account balance at every moment and manage his funds on his own. During the time he is saving funds in Telenor banka, the customer will have his funds at his disposal at every moment.
