Savills, a leading international real estate consultancy, has announced the results of its latest market report and local shopping centers in Spain. According to statements by Luis Swords, director of Capital Markets: “Investors are looking at Spain with caution even if they begin to have clear investment objectives. The problem is that all seek the same type of product, which also is clearly limited.

As the world of investment real live stock turmoil at present, there is a kind of “investment” that looks and timidly reminds us that there we have always been offering good interest rates without risking our money in an unknown future.

It is clear that the option with the potential for greatest benefit is the bag. Maybe in a day and earn a 13% to 20%, okay, but is not guaranteed a profit. Not only that the benefit is not assured, but even the investment is not insured. So invest in a fixed deposit is the best option. First, it is guaranteed, and second, because ultimately kill the banks for cash deposits from new customers, prompting them to raise more and more the interest rate offered.

Well, let’s look but panoramic summary on the best existing fixed term deposits in the Spanish market today. Of course, to make a final decision I recommend you take a peek at the deals in stores are advertised on the Internet on the various proposals of each bank.

An aggressive proposal is what makes Caja Madrid under the name “Cosmic Kite.” Basically it is an annual rate of 6.5% APR, and a requirement calls for household payroll, receipts and credit cards and hire pension plans.

Another proposal is to Openbank: APR 6% deposit to 6 months to new customers and old, and with the benefit of $ 0 in fees and commissions.

You also have the deposit to 12 months with interest at 6% APR ActivoBank (Banco Sabadell Atlántico), but only for new revenue. Of course, the minimum investment amount is $ 3,000. And there is no commission or any associated product.

I advise you to study the many banking services before decide. Above all, do not apply to you any commission.
