Attention: Interest on the funds held in your account is calculated based on the nominal interest rate. The annual percentage yield shows the income you will receive as a result of making the mandatory payments associated with your deposit and receiving the accrued interest at the specified frequency.
The procedure for calculating the annual percentage yield is provided below.
The account holder’s rights to dispose of the account and the funds held in it may be restricted on the basis of a request submitted by the bodies ensuring the enforcement of judicial acts or by tax authorities. Funds may be collected from the account without the account holder’s order pursuant to a court judgment, on the basis of a request submitted by the bodies ensuring the enforcement of judicial acts, as well as the procedure for notifying the account holder thereof. For the purpose of customer due diligence established by the RA Law “On Combating Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing”, the Bank may, on the basis of the “Know Your Customer” principle, request additional documents or other information from the consumer, as well as ask the consumer additional questions during oral communication (where such a requirement exists). In accordance with the agreement concluded with the USA on the basis of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), the Bank may collect additional information in order to determine whether you are a U.S. taxpayer. You have the right to communicate with “Ardshinbank” OJSC in the manner you prefer – by post or electronically. Receiving information electronically is the most convenient: it is available 24/7, is free from the risks of losing paper information and ensures confidentiality.

The interest rate
depends on the length of time the funds remain in the account and on the
minimum balance of the last (the term starts
from the day the
minimum balance provided for by the tariffs is ensured) 1, 3, 6 and 12 months,
therefore the
longer the savings are held, the higher the interest rate. The Bank accrues and
pays the interest calculated on the
minimum balance
of the reporting/given month at the end of the calendar month,
capitalizing it
to the account balance, unless otherwise provided by the agreement concluded
between the Bank and the Customer, and
when paying,
withholds and transfers to the state budget the taxes subject to collection
under the legislation. If on any day of the calendar month
the balance is
zero, the interest for that calendar month is not accrued and is not paid.
The savings
account interest rate is not fixed on an open-ended basis and is of an
informational nature. The Bank has the right to change it unilaterally,
notifying the account holder at least 7 days before the changes take effect
through the publication of the relevant information on the Bank’s corporate
website.
The aggregate
interest rate R of the current/reporting calendar month, which the customer
will receive, depends on the minimum balances of the last 1, 3, 6 and 12 months
and on the length of time the funds remain in the account, and is calculated by
the formula below. The formula takes into account the minimum balances of the
last 1, 3, 6 and 12 months and the interest rates (coefficients) R1, R3, R6 and
R12 set by the tariffs.
R% = max (S12
*R12;S6 * R6;S3 * R3; S1 *R1) * 100

G = S1*R*K Interest amount (G) = minimum

annual interest rate used to accrue and pay interest for the reporting month
Sn – minimum
balance of the last n months (n = 1, 3, 6, 12 months)
Rn – interest
rate for the period n (n = 1, 3, 6, 12 months)

If the depositor
has only an AMD bank deposit, the guaranteed deposit amount is 16,000,000
Armenian drams.
If the depositor
has only a foreign currency bank deposit, the guaranteed deposit amount is
7,000,000 Armenian drams.
If the depositor
has both AMD and foreign currency bank deposits, and the amount of the AMD bank
deposit exceeds 7,000,000 Armenian drams, only the AMD deposit is guaranteed,
up to 16,000,000 Armenian drams.
If the depositor
has both AMD and foreign currency bank deposits, and the amount of their AMD
bank deposit is less than 7,000,000 Armenian drams, the AMD bank deposit is
guaranteed in full, and the foreign currency bank deposit – in the amount of
the difference between 7,000,000 Armenian drams and the compensated AMD bank
deposit.
All AMD deposits
held by a depositor in Ardshinbank OJSC are considered one deposit, except for
non-guaranteed deposits, and all foreign currency deposits held by the
depositor in the bank are considered one deposit, except for non-guaranteed
deposits. A joint deposit is considered a separate deposit in the amount of the
share established by the bank deposit agreement. If the shares of the joint
bank deposit depositors are not established by the bank deposit agreement, the
joint bank deposit is divided equally among the depositors. When calculating
the amounts of guaranteed deposits subject to compensation, AMD deposits are
calculated first, and foreign currency deposits second.
The Bank accrues and pays the interest amounts calculated
for the minimum balance of the reporting/given month at the end of the calendar
month by capitalizing the account balance, unless otherwise stipulated by the
contract signed between the Bank and the Client, and when paying, withholds and
transfers to the state budget the taxes to be levied by legislation. If the
balance is zero on any day of a calendar month, no interest is accrued or paid
for that calendar month.
