Frequently asked questions
What does it cost to hold an account at Republic Bank Grenada?+
The e-Free account carries a monthly fee of XCD 0, so there is nothing to pay for keeping it open. The Savings Plus account charges on access instead: a set number of debits or withdrawals each quarter are free, then a fee applies to each extra one. Online banking transactions on that account are free.
What interest does the Savings Plus account pay?+
The headline rate is 2% and the rate type is variable, which means the return is not fixed for a set period. The median headline rate for savings accounts on this site is 3%, so it is worth weighing the rate against what you can get elsewhere.
How much do I need to open a savings account?+
The minimum deposit for the Savings Plus account is XCD 50. That is low enough to start with a modest balance and add to it later, and it is well below the €21.14 upper quartile for minimum deposits across savings accounts on the site.
Which regulator supervises the bank?+
The bank is supervised in Grenada by the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank, so the deposits sit with a named, regulated institution. The legal entity is Republic Bank Limited and it is headquartered in Grenada, with a history going back to 1979.
How many currencies can I hold?+
The foreign currency accounts cover 4 currencies. That is fewer than the 5 median across multi-currency accounts on the site, so anyone who needs a wide spread of currencies is better served by a dedicated multi-currency provider.
How do I get help if something goes wrong?+
Support is by phone, so phone is the route for account questions and access problems. Across multi-currency accounts on the site, 74% is the most common channel, which is a gap for anyone who prefers writing.
Does the bank offer a joint account?+
Yes, a joint account is one of the listed features. The account runs with a monthly fee of XCD 0, and only a minority of multi-currency accounts on the site offer a joint account, so it is a point of difference for couples or shared households.
What kind of account is the Savings Plus product?+
It is an easy access savings account, which is the most common kind among easy-access accounts here. That makes it a practical home for money you may want to reach without a notice period, at the cost of the access charges once the free debits and withdrawals are used.
