CD % Rates

Does anyone know the interest rate earned on CDs in Dominican on US dollars? I heard 4% but wanted to confirm that, do they pay out monthly?

Also if anyone knows % earned on savings acct and steps I would have to take after becoming a resident to open a bank acct?

Okay the rates change depending on many factors :  Bank,  dollars or pesos, amount, duration, monthly payout etc etc.   Please do NOT post info on amounts here.  You can google the various banks to see their rates:  ScotiaBank, Banco Popular, BanReservas,  Central Bank to start with.

You do not need residencia to open a bank account. You can do so with your passport,  a letter of reference from your current bank and maybe a current client to refer you.   Its not a tough thing to do but make sure you bring that letter of reference with you from home.

Good advice Planner.. She will also need a second letter of reference from someone who lives in the DR, like another °µÍø½ûÇø or her realtor if she has one.
