The Central Bank of Russia published its March 2026 monitoring results for maximum interest rates on Russian rouble household deposits offered by the 10 credit institutions attracting the largest volume of retail deposits, showing an average maximum rate of 13.87% for the first 10 days of March. For reference, the average maximum rates by maturity were 13.31% for up to 90 days, 13.57% for 91–180 days, 13.36% for 181 days to one year, and 11.73% for over one year. The calculation is an arithmetic mean of each bank’s maximum rate for deposits available to any client without limitations or preliminary conditions, excluding special-category deposits, compound-interest deposits, rates contingent on conditions (such as card turnover or minimum balances), combined products with add-on requirements (including investment or insurance-linked conditions), and deposits with stepped rates; the monitoring uses information from the banks’ websites and the published values are indicative. The Bank of Russia noted that data on changes in the monitoring results are available on its website.
