This measure will also apply to account types in which no commission was previously charged, such as the Independencia account.
The entity indicated that clients of the Independencia account will be able to avoid these maintenance costs if they maintain a minimum balance of S/ 100 or US$ 30, which is not the one in the account on the last day of the month, but rather the monthly average. .
In case that amount is not registered, a monthly fee of S / 10 will be paid.
With respect to the Winning account, you must have an average balance of S/ 1,500 or US$ 500 in order not to pay maintenance, otherwise you will have to pay S/ 8 monthly.
