1. Introduction
VIB Bank’s E-Saving Account allows customers to earn higher interest rates on their savings. An automatic two-way transfer is made from the E-Saving Account to the current account in order to ensure liquidity and earn more interest.
Customers register a fixed minimum balance in their current account. When the balance exceeds this minimum, the system automatically transfers the excess to the E-Saving Account so that customers earn a higher interest rate. Conversely, when the actual balance on the current account falls under the minimum, the system automatically transfers funds from the E-Saving Account to ensure the minimum balance is retained.
