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. sf-smile

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.
