Helping you realise your dreams

The Savings Account is an ideal companion for everyday banking if you’re looking to put aside money for a specific purpose. This Savings Account product lets you save toward one or more goals and earn monthly interest. Raise money for your next trip, to buy a home or just for a rainy day.

Speed up the saving process with micro-savings, where every card payment gets a little closer to your target. If you pay 7.10 euros for groceries, it will be rounded up to an even 8 euros and the 90 cents gets credited to your Savings Account. You save without even noticing it and speed up your dreams.

Opening and managing a Savings Account is totally free and you can withdraw funds at any time.

Helping you grow your money

We know that every euro counts when you’re in your teens and twenties – and especially because time is the most important factor in turning euros into even more euros. Money you save and invest now can be a big help letting you realise your dreams in the future.

The fastest and easiest way is to use the LHV Growth Account. It lets you start with just 1 euro, and we’ll perform all the securities transactions for you. Your job is only to choose one to ten stocks or funds you want to invest in.

While saving small amounts with every card purchase is common in other banks as well, at LHV we make your savings grow automatically too. That means that once you’ve opened a Growth Account and activated micro-investing, we’ll round your card payment to the next highest whole number of euros, and transfer the difference to your Growth Account, where it’ll automatically be invested into the stocks or funds you’ve selected. You can be as passive an investor as you wish and incrementally invest without even being aware of it.

On average, LHV clients who micro-invest accumulate 1.10 euros per day on their Growth Account, which comes to about 400 euros per year. Invest that amount with Growth Account over 25 years and at a 10% yield it could grow to 40,000 euros.
