Get ready for a round of deposit rate cuts from the banks this week. Ntma funds again looking better for the medium term.
 
Rate drops

I tried to open 1 year fixed rate options with Ulster bank an KBC on Friday. Both said they were decreasing their rates tomorrow Tuesday.
 
I just had a look on the KBC site and it looks like you are right, most of their rates dropped today.

Top-Up Deposit down from 2.05 to 1.80
Interest Up Front down from 2.25 to 2.00
Standard Fixed Rate Account 6 Month down from 2.10 to 1.85
Standard Fixed Rate Account 9 Month down from 2.15 to 1.90
Fixed Rate Account 12 Month down from 2.30 to 2.05
Fixed Rate Account 14 Month down from 2.35 to 2.10
Fixed Rate Account 18 Month down from 2.30 to 2.15
Fixed Rate Account 36 Month down from 2.30 to 2.15


The Smart Access and Smart Move accounts both dropped their rates last month and will drop again next month.

I was told in an Ulster Bank branch that the one year rate of 2.0% would be decreasing to 1.9% in early June. This has been reflected on their website today.
 
Thanks guys, the best buys are updated.

Sad to see rates continue on the downward trend.
 
I expect NTMA to drop their rates shortly - it takes them a few days to get a statutory instrument in place
