Per Rate Update e-mail:

"Effective April 30, our 1-year term rate is decreasing, but our 2-year to 5-year term rates are increasing. Our high-interest savings rate is staying at 2.00%.

Our new term rates are as follows:

1-year term - 2.30% average [down 10 bps]

2-year term - 2.20% [up 10 bps]

3-year term - 2.25% [up 10 bps]

4-year term - 2.30% [up 10 bps]

5-year term - 2.40% [up 10 bps]"

Cheers,
Doug

Got the email an hour ago. Nice they give you advance notice at least. Locked in a 1 year term at today's rate with funds going in Friday. Didn't know you could do that....lose 2 days interest in the first quarter, but still come out ahead over the term.
At least the long term rates went up...RSP GIC maturing in June.

Always more beneficial to give details and links 🙂 It saves many of us Googling.

Thanks, Dean. That was my thinking as well. Most of the regulars are Hubert members, with varying degrees of their deposit balances. Thus, as you say, people can easily just navigate to their bookmarked Hubert website (perhaps even their "rates" page) and verify. Profile page link you provided is also useful. sf-cool

Cheers,
Doug

Now imagine you see the 2nd post and think umm nice where are the details.
