I received something like this yesterday...........
Limited time offer! Take advantage of your special GIC rates today:
1yr 2.8% 2yr 2.95
You'd think they would be embarrassed. I guess there are lower rates around.

For 'Big Bank' GICs, those ⬆️ rates are actually Fairly Good !
But of course, we know where we can do Much Better.

I'm no fan of RBC but to their credit they are beating Tangetine, who emailed me yesterday to Grow your savings with an amazing 2.75%* GIC rate and that I had to fund it by Jan 2.
No thanks to either of them when I just opened some 2 years at 3.75% at MCAN last month. Also, all my day-to-day cash is earning the identical 2.75% at EQ.
A recent CBC About That segment shows how the Big 6 have been slowly creeping up their interest rate spread over the years. I am benefiting as a shareholder, but not gonna contribute as a client.

They're playing for the people who are not fintech savvy, and those who don't trust online banks.
