What are the savings accounts that offer the highest profitability in the country?

With the recent announcement made of Nubank on the reduction in their rate of profitability from 13% to 12% annual effective to their so-called savings accounts, The list of the highest rates offered by the ‘fintech’ sector has changed.

(Also: Nubank reduces the profitability rate of its savings accounts to 12% effective annually).

What is profitability?

In this case, the profitability in a savings account, as explained by the Commission for the Financial Market (CMF) of Chileis the profit that a person receives by putting their savings in a financial institution and is expressed through interest, which corresponds to a percentage of the amount of money saved. To these are added the readjustments that allow the purchasing value of the money that has been saved to be maintained.

(You can read: Labor reform: are there companies in Colombia that have profits of more than 25%?).

They also emphasize that the savings formulas offered in financial institutions provide fixed income (interest rate that is known since the money is taken to the bank) and the variable income (when profitability will fluctuate depending on factors such as market behavior or inflation).
