About this ranking

Monthly average annual interest rate on new euro deposits from non-financial corporations with agreed maturity up to 1 year.

New agreements include renegotiations. Rates are weighted by the amounts agreed during the month and are distinct from the ECB composite rates that use moving-average weights. Annualised agreed rates or narrowly defined effective rates (AAR/NDER) cover interest and exclude fees and other charges. Household figures include non-profit institutions serving households. Corporations are non-financial companies. The euro area aggregate has changing membership. Country histories vary and missing values are not filled.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the EU countries are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
