How Does It Work?
Profit is calculated based on the frequency of profit payment and the tenor of deposit. For deposits of one year or more you can choose to receive profit monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or yearly, according to your investment needs. Here is an example that illustrates the profit payment if you were to invest Rs. 500,000/- in the Step Up Savings Plan for durations of 3 years and 1 year.

IGI Investment Bank introduces the Variable Rate Deposit Plan that provides investors with [the choice of] profit rates varying with KIBOR applicable at different intervals during the tenor of deposit. As KIBOR moves up, so will the return on your deposit!
The Variable Rate Deposit Plan evaluates the rate of return according to the variations in KIBOR – Karachi Inter-Bank Offer Rate, giving you the option to have your returns revised on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis with the periodical rate applicable on 1M, 3M, 6M and 1Y KIBOR respectively. Thus any increase in KIBOR will enhance return on your deposit.
Why should you Deposit in the Variable Rate Deposit Plan?
The Variable Rate Deposit plan is beneficial for long-term depositors who anticipate a rise in profit rates. Thus, by placing your long term deposits in the Variable Rate Deposit Plan you can expect to receive returns based on current KIBOR instead of a fixed rate of return.
Besides providing a flexible rate of return, the Variable Rate Deposit Plan also provides depositors with the option to receive their profit payments according to a pre-agreed duration of their choice.
You can also enhance your returns by adding your profit amount at every profit payment date to your invested amount, so that, when the next time your profit is calculated, you receive profit on more than your invested amount.
You can also deposit in the Variable Rate Deposit Plan for a period of 1 year with a minimum of Rs. 100,000/- only so hurry and invest while profit rates are likely to increase.
How does it work?
TTo illustrate how the Variable Rate Deposit Plan works, let’s take a look at an historical example with actual KIBOR rates. Suppose you invested Rs. 500,000/- in the Variable Rate Deposit Plan on April 03, 2008 with a monthly profit payment frequency. Your returns for the following 3 months would have been as follows:
Deposited Amount: Rs. 500,000/-
Profit Payment Frequency / Revision of Profit Rates: Monthly
Applicable KIBOR: 1 Month KIBOR
Starting Date: April 03, 2008
As shown in the above mentioned table, rates are revised every month according to the profit payment frequency chosen. If the profit payment frequency chosen was quarterly, semi-annual or annual, the applicable KIBOR would have been 3M, 6Month and 1Year respectively with rates being revised as per that interval.
The Variable Rate Deposit product is ideal for depositors seeking to benefit from the expected increase in profit rates. Variation in 3M, 6M and 1Y KIBOR rates from April 2004 to October 2008 is given below:
