Alex Bank adds term deposits to its range of products
After being granted a banking licence just before Christmas in 2022, Alex Bank has added term deposit products to its portfolio, powered by a banking cloud.
The digital bank uses the Temenos banking cloud, an end to end digital banking platform, aiming to offer a streamlined, user friendly online banking service.
CEO Simon Beitz says the expansion into term deposits will help the bank continue to scale.
"This allows Alex Bank to rapidly grow its balance sheet and improve our cost of funds and margin," he said.
The term deposits are currently only available via invitation, or through selected intermediary companies, and rates will vary between the two.
To receive an invitation directly from Alex Bank, interested customers need to register their interest and wait to hear back, but clients of approved intermediaries are able to apply.
