EBS Building Society has announced details of National Savings Week 2010 which is due to take place in Westmeath and across the country from next Monday to Saturday September 6 to 11.
EBS offices in Athlone and Mullingar will be offering free financial reviews all week for those interested in discussing the best savings options for them. To coincide with the week and for the convenience of those unable to drop into the offices during regular hours, EBS offices in Athlone and Mullingar will be opening on Saturday September 11 from 10am-1pm.
According to Aidan Power, Head of Marketing, EBS Building Society: “While people in Ireland tend to be placing more importance on saving, there is still need for more of us to become regular savers and this highlights the role of initiatives such as National Savings Week. National Savings Week helps to promote the importance of conducting a financial review in order to determine your family’s financial requirements and encourages people to inform themselves about what type of account is appropriate to their needs. By selecting the right savings product, consumers can ensure that they avail of the maximum amount of interest available on their various deposits.
“At EBS we believe that it is critically important to help our members plan effectively for their family’s future. To mark National Savings Week, we have launched a new five-month fixed term savings account with a market leading rate of 3.6 per cent Gross PA (AER 3.64 per cent ).
“I would encourage members of the public to drop into one of our EBS offices to avail of a free financial review. Alternatively, by logging on to www.ebs.ie and accessing our new savings webcasts, consumers will be able to get information on regular savings, fixed savings, savings for teens and children, and pensions, as well as to get helpful advice and tips on saving. They can also enter ‘The Super Saver Challenge’ to be in with an opportunity to win € 5,000 in savings.”
