Current Accounts
In line with the very nature of these accounts, no profit
is offered on the balances. The account holders are entitled
for various special services, including representation / approvals
from State Bank of Pakistan / Regulatory Authorities, etc.
Savings Accounts
The profit on our Savings Accounts is paid on the basis of
a monthly minimum balance on a biannual basis. There is no
restriction on withdrawals and there is no minimum balance
requirement.
Call Deposits
We offer 5-29 days Call Deposits for amounts of over Rs.
10 million. The rates are market driven and no withdrawals
can be made without due notice in writing.
Term Deposits
We also offer fixed deposits of 1 month, 3 month, 6 month,
1 year, 3 year and 5 year tenors. Profit is paid at the maturity
of the deposits. Rates of profits are announced on a monthly
basis.
Repos
To let the customer take the advantage of market rate movements,
we structure one-off repurchase deals for our clients against
Government Securities. This is not a product we offer regularly
(the product is not available for saving account holders),
but from time to time, exceptions are considered. There is
a Master Repo Agreement, which must be signed by the client
before entering into a transaction. Rates are decided at the
time of the transaction. The transactions are letter-based,
i.e. the securities remain in the custody of Citibank N.A.
Special Deposit Categories
Payroll Accounts
This is a special Savings Account that earns a higher rate
of profit than our regular Savings Accounts. Only employees
of companies that have their accounts with Citibank N.A. and
disburse salaries into these accounts are eligible. Please
note that these accounts are separate from the Company's Accounts,
which will earn a rate based on the applicable PLS slab.
Employee Benefit Accounts
We also offer a special term deposit product for Registered
Pension, Provident and Gratuity Funds. Only registered funds
are eligible, and there is a minimum balance requirement of
Rs. 25 million. In this category, deposits for the tenors
of 3, 5 and 7 years are offered. The rates are declared at
the beginning of each month.
