Effective as of close of business on August 22, 2022, the annual interest rate for the LBC Digital High Interest Savings Account (HISA) on deposits up to and including $500,000 will change from 1.15% to 1.70%. The annual interest rate on deposits over $500,000 will remain at 0.30%.

saw it too.
Why do they even care to update when it will attract a big zero deposit anyway...

It clearly seems underwhelming relative to other Canadian options but it may be they have a large Quebec depositor base that tends to 'stay local' and don't need to offer more relative to their regional competition. It is always about managing the deposits they want/need at the lowest cost (to them). Their shareholders (owners of the bank) demand it.

With the big bank brokerage HISA's at 2.25 %, anything less is subpar. I opened an acct with LBC when their rates were among the best (3.3% ). I transferred out earlier this year to Oaken and now Motive as rates started to rise. Will likely close my LBC acct in the near future.

Yes, and we the depositors demand more by moving our funds accordingly.

As we should and do (as did I). Win-win for both the FI and the depositor.

And win-win for depositors who also happen to be shareholders!
