This means that the rate of interest applicable on the whole
balance of your account can be different depending upon the
balance of your account on a particular day.
For an account with banded interest rates, different annual
interest rates for a particular day can apply to different parts
of your account balance on that day. For example, the interest
that accrues on the part of your balance between $10,000 and
$20,000 can be different from the interest that accrues on the
first $9,999.99 of the balance.
In all cases, we will work out the interest that accrues on your
account for a particular day at a rate (or rates, as applicable)
equal to the applicable annual interest rate (or rates, as
applicable) divided by the number of days in that year (usually
365, but 366 in a leap year).
When interest is credited
Accrued interest will be credited to your account with the
frequency indicated in sections 6 and 7, or with such other
frequency as set out in the confirmation letter relating to the
opening of your account or subsequently agreed by you or
determined by us in accordance with section 2.16. The interest
that is credited to your account on a particular day will not
generally include the interest accrued in respect of that day.
Where an interest payment is scheduled to be credited on the
29th, 30th or 31st of a month which does not contain such a
date, it will, subject to the comments below, be credited on the
last day of that month.
Except in the case of ANZ Passbook Savings accounts (see section
6.7) and ANZ V2 PLUS accounts (see section 6.9), where an interest
payment is scheduled to be credited to your account on a non-
business day, it will generally be credited on the preceding business
day. The payment will exclude interest accruing in respect of that
preceding business day or any subsequent day. However, where that
preceding business day is not in the same calendar month as the
scheduled date, the interest payment will instead be credited to your
account on the next business day. The payment will relate to interest
accrued up to, but not including or following, the scheduled date.
The payment will be credited with effect from the scheduled date.
When you close your account, we will generally pay any
outstanding credit interest to you. We may also credit interest to
your account on any date on which we change the frequency
with which interest is credited to your account.
Except in the case of ANZ Passbook Savings accounts and ANZ
V2 PLUS accounts, you can choose to have your interest paid to
another eligible ANZ deposit account, rather than being credited
to the account on which the interest accrues. Unless you tell us
otherwise, we will pay any interest to the account on which the
interest accrues.
