Each investor, which entered into Amanat Klubu, can take advantage of various benefits, including, get bonus interest on the contributions of a soft loan, a free service of SMS banking, internet banking and other privileges. Every depositor, whose deposit history is at least 12 months, or a new investor who opened a deposit account (as soon as his deposit story is 12 months old) can join Amanat Klubu.
At this time, there is sharp increase in customer calls to the branches of Bank of Baku to join the club or to open a bank deposit account. Opening a deposit account is now one of the most popular products of the Bank of Baku. - 15D -
