Inlåningen från hushållen i Finland ökade till över 100 miljarder euro13.8.2020 13:00:00 EEST | Uutinen
Inlåningen [1] från hushållen i Finland översteg 100 miljarder euro och uppgick till 100,4 miljarder euro vid slutet av juni 2020. Merparten (87,8 md euro) av hushållens tillgångar på inlåningskonton bestod av insättningar på transaktionskonton [2] (inlåning över natten). Också den ökade inlåningen har redan en längre tid huvudsakligen berott på att de finansiella tillgångarna på transaktionskonton ökat. Den tidsbundna inlåningen har redan länge minskat och ökningen i övrig inlåning har varit måttlig. Hushållens tillgångar i tidsbunden inlåning uppgick till 4,4 miljarder euro och övrig inlåning 8,3 miljarder euro. I juni var genomsnittsräntan på den sammanlagda inlåningen 0,07 %. Genomsnittsräntan på transaktionskonton var 0,04 % och på tidsbunden inlåning 0,50 %. Efter utgången av mars 2020 har inlåningen från de finländska hushållen ökat med 3,6 miljarder euro, varav 3,5 miljarder euro härrörde från hushållens ökade finansiella tillgångar på transaktionskonton. Inlåningen ökade kraft

Kesäkuussa yhteenlasketun talletuskannan keskikorko oli 0,07 %. Käyttelytilien keskikorko oli 0,04 % ja määräaikaistalletusten kannan 0,50 %.
