Deutsche Savings Accelerator Account may be opened within the following registered investment accounts - TFSA, RRSP, RESP, RRIF and RDSP.
The bonus interest rate (The “Bonus Rate”) applies to New Deposits (defined below) made into an eligible Deutsche Savings Accelerator Account (“SSAA”) between August 14, 2023 and January 31, 2024 (the “Bonus Rate Period”). Eligible SSAAs include only those held within a First Home Savings Account (FHSA) at either Deutsche or Berkley Securities Inc. (together, “Deutsche bank”). SSAAs held within a TFSA, RRSP, RRIF, LIF, Registered Locked-In RSP, RESP, RDSP or any other registered plan or non-registered account at Deutsche are not eligible for this Bonus Rate.
During the Bonus Rate Period, the Bonus Rate of 4.25% will be earned only on that portion of the SSAA Daily Balance that is greater than the SSAA Daily Balance as of August 13 2023 (“New Deposits”). The “SSAA Daily Balance” means, with respect to any particular day, the closing balance in the eligible SSAA. In addition, New Deposits will continue to earn interest at the posted annual interest rate for the SSAA (click here for current rates).
The Bonus Rate will cease to apply as of February 1, 2024. The bonus interest earned during the Bonus Rate Period will be calculated daily and paid monthly. All interest rates described herein are annual rates.
SSAAs must be open and in good standing in order to receive any interest calculated at the Bonus Rate. A SSAA is not in 'good standing' if it has a negative balance, or the account holder is in breach of the account agreement with Deutsche bank.
It is the SSAA account holder’s responsibility to determine his or her maximum allowable annual contributions in SSAAs held in registered plans.
All other terms and conditions of the SSAA continue to apply, refer to Savings Accelerator Account
