Several Banks Raise CD Rates in April Amid Rising Competition
In April, several banks increased their certificate of deposit (CD) rates, with short-term CDs rising to 3.71% and medium-term CDs to 2.62%, according to Morgan Stanley. The move reflects intensifying competition and improving loan demand, as banks aim to balance net interest income. Analysts suggest CD rates may remain stable or slightly higher as the Federal Reserve signals no immediate rate cuts.
