Staikouras: Immediately raise deposit rates, lower lending rates

Message for banks immediately and significantly raise deposit rates and lower lending rates, the finance minister also sent on Saturday Christos Staikouras. Speaking on SKAI TV on Saturday morning, the finance minister said that “the average interest rate on new deposits is stable at 0.05%. The average interest rate on new loans in October increased by 0.26% to 4.86%, which is unacceptable. They should immediately and significantly raise deposit rates and lower the interest rate on new loans.”

When asked about this, the minister said that the heads of the banks replied that they would move in this direction. “We want it to be done immediately and boldly, not a 0.01% increase… In 10 days we have a meeting again. For me, they sold out within 10 days,” he said.

At the same time, he said he asked the banks to evaluate 12 specific fees within 10 days, pointing out that “they charge a lot of Greek citizens and they don’t pay them what they owe.” As he stressed, the government “has done enough to support the banking system. Not bankers, but Greek borrowers and savers.”
