Commission for premature termination of the Term deposit agreement2 |
|
| With a 3-day prior written notice to SEB bank | 3% of the amount |
1 Upon both parties' agreement, it is possible to extend deposits for other terms and/or other currencies. The minimum deposit amount and interest rate is set for each transaction separately.
2 The commission is applied when the agreement is terminated before expiry, irrespective of whether the customer wants to receive the deposited funds in cash or as a transfer. If the agreement is terminated before expiry, the customer will not receive the accrued interest; in turn, SEB bank withholds the interest that was already paid to the customer from the principal amount of the Deposit.
