Bank
« on: September 06, 2013, 11:07:48 am »
Hi,

I've searched the forum and the wiki but I could not find answers to the below questions:

1 - How does the interest rate work? Is it 2.5% per day?

2 - If yes, would the system consider the end of day balance to calculate the interests? At what time?

3 - Alternatively, if movements on the account occurs during the day and the end of day balance is not what is taken into account, how are those changes considered to calculate the interests?

4 - I see there is a credit rating, what is it used for? Does it mean it is possible to borrow money from the bank?

5 - Are there other bank features I'm missing, appart from the usual withdraw/deposit and joint account?

Thank you.

So, there is a pre-defined maximum number of caps that banks can handle before going bankrupt because of interests payments?

This is bound to happen. Until then, i deposit my hardearned grind money there and wait until the interest helps me to reach 100K, then i will withdraw it and deposit another 100K.
Better small interest than no access at all.

I remember camping the bank for cash.

As a suggestion, can the bank implement the dynamic interest? Like, it gets turned off when there is no cash available to stop the economic avalanche.

Or a interest cap, starting with a certain sum of money?

That's a workaround indeed.  It would be good to know how the system deals with interests to expand the efficiency of your method (i.e. would it work if you deposit the cash before cut off to gain the interests, then withdraw until the next batch etc).
