Last week, Denmark’s central bank cut its deposit rate to -0.75%. Banks will pass this on to large customers.
Please consider Denmark's Jyske Bank Lowers its Negative Rates on Deposits.
Jyske Bank said on Friday people with more than $111,100 in their bank accounts will be charged more for their deposits as it seeks to pass on some of the costs of recent rate cuts by the European and Danish central bank.
Jyske Bank, Denmark’s second-largest bank, said it would introduce a negative interest rate of 0.75% for all corporate deposits and for private clients depositing more than 750,000 Danish crowns ($111,100) from Dec 1.
Last week, Denmark’s central bank cut its key deposit rate to minus 0.75%, a record low among developed economies. “It is a lot of money and we have to pass on part of this bill to our customers,” he said. “I don’t hope that we will have to go lower but I don’t dare to promise it.”.
Denmark’s largest bank, Danske Bank has said it has no plans to introduce negative interest rates on deposits. Switzerland’s UBS has said it will impose a negative rate of 0.75% on clients who deposit more than 2 million Swiss francs ($2 million). ($1 = 6.7559 Danish crowns)
Simple Question
If you live in Denmark and have a bank account in excess of $100,000 or so, why would you have it at Jyske Bank which charges 0.75% while Danske Bank, the country's largest bank doesn't?
Possibilities
There is something seriously wrong at Danske Bank and people don't trust it.
Danske Bank welcomes deposits and can do something with the money. But if so, at what risk?
Any Danish readers care to answer?
Perhaps we have an answer from Bloomberg in the following discussion.
