Bank deposit rate, IMF-harmonised — what parked money earns.

How to read this figure

The IMF-harmonised deposit rate — what banks pay on deposits. Compare it with inflation: a deposit rate below inflation means parked money loses purchasing power even inside the bank. Same harmonisation trade-off as the lending rate.
