Banque Misr offers 9 types of savings certificates available to customers for daily purchase, and each certificate differs from the other in the interest rate and the period of linking the certificate, as well as the type of return, fixed or variable.
Banque Misr continues to provide the same interest rates on savings certificates applied over the past year without change, even with the beginning of the new year 2022, as a result of the stability of the monetary policy vision responsible for setting the interest rate on deposits and lending in the Central Bank.
There are two types of return, one of which is fixed over the duration of the certificate without change, and the other is variable, i.e. linked to the average interest rate of the central bank, whether up or down.
Banque Misr allows customers to have the right to break the certificate and recover all or part of the original certificates at any time, provided that 6 months have passed since their purchase according to the terms signed by the customer, with a deduction of a percentage of the benefits he obtained due to breaking them before their expiry date.
