I’m baffled by this, the Euro area is 20% and sweden is so fucking low it isnt even on the list…
I think the French position is the best generally speaking. Savings go up quite a lot, an unlike the UK we don’t get crushed by variable interest loans either.
How is this calculated? Currently commercial banks operating in Estonia offer 4% or so interest on 12 month deposits, which is very much in line with ECB / Euribor interest rates.
Banks don’t like you keeping your assets on a bank account and would give a bigger return to a different investment product. That’s often less risk (or more profit) for them, in reality and/or in bank regulation.

And this is why Italy is going to tax the banks’ profits
I would like to know what this * referce to you know.
[The UK is also looking to start penalising banks that are not passing on rates fast enough to UK savers.](https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/jul/31/banks-with-lowest-savings-rates-to-face-robust-action-warns-uk-financial-watchdog)
Why is it so low in other countries?
Well done U.K.
