The Bank of Russia has released the results for December 2024 regarding the maximum interest rates on deposits in Russian rubles. The monitoring covered the top ten credit institutions attracting the largest amount of household deposits.
For the first ten days of December, the maximum interest rate was recorded at 22.08%. This figure slightly increased to 22.28% during the second ten days of December. These results are available on the Bank of Russia's website.
