What is the primary purpose of “auto-profit” banking products?

  • Increase lending interest rates for individual customers
  • Attract non-term deposits (CASA) – a low-cost funding source
  • Reduce bad debt ratios in the banking system
  • Expand international payment services

CASA is a low-cost funding source. With auto-profit products, banks help customers maintain liquidity while earning higher interest rates compared to regular transaction accounts.

What is the key difference between “auto-profit” and regular transaction accounts?

  • Customers are exempt from all transaction fees
  • Banks offer higher interest rates by automatically transferring funds to short-term investments
  • Account balances are doubled due to bank promotions
  • Customers receive unlimited deposit insurance

Instead of letting money sit idle, the system automatically allocates it to safe, short-term investments within the bank’s ecosystem, allowing customers to earn returns while maintaining withdrawal flexibility.

What is the most significant benefit customers gain from “auto-profit” products?

  • Exemption from personal income tax
  • Guaranteed fixed profits regardless of market fluctuations
  • Flexible withdrawals combined with higher interest rates than regular transaction accounts
  • Double the usual credit limit

Auto-profit products combine the liquidity of transaction accounts with the interest benefits of savings accounts, making them ideal for optimizing idle funds without sacrificing accessibility.
