SC First Bank announced on September 14 that it will offer a special interest rate event for new customers who sign up for its flexible deposit product, the 'SC First Hi Account,' until December 31.
During this event, customers will receive a special interest rate of 3.4 percentage points, regardless of their deposit balance. By applying the base rate and various preferential rates, customers can earn up to 4.0% annually.
The special interest rate will be effective until January 31, 2027, regardless of the sign-up date. Therefore, the earlier a customer signs up, the longer they can benefit from the special rate. For those who sign up on September 14, the special rate will apply for approximately four months.
Eligible customers include new clients who have registered their information with SC First Bank within the last 31 days, as well as existing customers who have not held any Korean won or foreign currency deposit or savings accounts with the bank in the past year.
The base interest rate for the Hi Account is 0.1% per year. During the event period, first-time customers will receive a special interest rate of 3.4 percentage points, regardless of their balance. Customers who sign up through mobile banking or at a branch will receive an additional 0.1 percentage points for new preferential rates through partner channels, 0.2 percentage points for agreeing to marketing, and 0.2 percentage points for priority customers.
The Hi Account allows for flexible deposits and withdrawals, and it also offers fee waivers for internet and mobile banking transfers, as well as ATM withdrawal fees.
Jung Jae-won, head of the collateral loan and deposit product division at SC First Bank, stated, “We hope this event allows more customers to experience the benefits of the Hi Account. We will continue to provide various products and benefits that meet our customers' financial needs.”
