Argentine Banks Lift 30-Day Deposit Rates to 54% as Market Reprices in Days

The Central Bank’s table highlights wide gaps across banks and channels after minimum‑rate deregulation.

Overview

  • Sector averages jumped from about 35.87% to roughly 44% TNA in roughly a week, according to industry surveys and media compilations of bank quotes.
  • Regional and digital players including VOII, CMF, Bica, Meridian, Crédito Regional and Reba are advertising top 30‑day rates around 52–54%.
  • Banco Nación offers 44% TNA for online deposits versus 34% in branches, and its simulator estimates about $2.8 million is needed to earn $100,000 in 30 days online.
  • A 44% TNA equates to an effective monthly return near 3.66%, which exceeds INDEC’s latest reported monthly inflation of 2.1% for September.
  • Non‑bank alternatives show even higher nominal returns, with remunerated wallets and money‑market funds reporting TNA in the 57–61% range.
