Argentina’s 30-Day Plazo Fijo Rates Settle in Mid-20s to Low-30s, With Digital Lenders on Top

After post-election trims, official listings show a clear gap between online and in-branch payouts and a handful of smaller players leading the market.

Overview

  • The BCRA’s November 17 table shows major banks near 24%–30% TNA—Banco Nación at 27%, Banco Macro at 30% and Banco Galicia at 24%—while top offers include Reba at 36% and VOII and Meridian at 33.5%.
  • Banco Nación pays 27% TNA for online placements versus 22.5% in branches, and its simulator estimates $500,000 earns about $11,095 in 30 days online versus roughly $9,247 in person.
  • At a 27% TNA, a 30-day deposit of $4,000,000 generates around $88,767 in interest, according to examples cited from bank calculators.
  • Banco Provincia’s Cuenta DNI applies a 32% TNA, with calculations indicating roughly $12,082,500 is needed to match the current minimum wage and about $15,115,702 to match the minimum pension plus bonus in one month.
  • Outlets stress comparing bank-by-bank TNAs and channel terms, noting deposit insurance administered by SEFyC/SEDESA that protects capital within coverage limits.
