Which bank offers the best financial services?

Each bank has its own specificities, but some are better than others for certain offers:

• To open a current account : Some banks offer accounts that include very good services (unlimited external withdrawals) at a very low price, but few additional benefits (such as the possibility to make investments or save). On the other hand, other bank accounts include a lot of advantages (2 bank cards, preferential rates on loans, a free savings account, investment advice), but these accounts will generally be the most expensive on the market. So it all depends on your needs and budget. We advise you to compare the different types of bank accounts before making your choice.
• For a personal loan (consumer credit, car or work) : the comparison is quite simple. All you have to do is analyse the different offers and choose the one with the best rate. However, this rate should be personalised according to your financial situation and your project. Bear in mind that it may change. Nevertheless, our selection of loan offers will allow you to make an initial selection and find the most attractive rates easily.

Current accounts: all bank charges are analysed

We take many criteria into account when selecting the best current accounts in Luxembourg. Here are the parameters we analyse:

1. Account maintenance fees : This is the fee you pay each month to your bank to have a current account. Some banks offer these fees for specific accounts (such as 100% online accounts). Most of these accounts will have to be managed 100% on the Internet: you will not be able to benefit from branch operations.
2. Bank card fees : Some banks include bank cards in their basic package, but others do not. With these banks, you will have to pay an extra €20 to €60 per year (or even more, if you choose a Gold or Platinum card). These are the fees you need to take into account when comparing offers.
3. External withdrawal fees : All Luxembourg banks offer unlimited withdrawals from their own cash machines. However, if you withdraw money from another bank, you may have to pay extra. Some banks include a limited number of free transfers, but with others you will have to pay for the first withdrawal from a third-party ATM. So this is an important consideration in our selection of bank accounts.
4. External transfer fees : To make SEPA transfers in euro to accounts at other banks, you may have to pay extra. However, most banks offer an unlimited number of euro transfers to external accounts. Make sure you have this option when you open your bank account.
5. Overdraft fees : Every time your balance goes into the negative, some banks charge a fee. This can be a fixed fee (€50 commission) or interest (1% of the amount owed to the bank). Not all banks charge commission for overdrafts: look out for this on the offers compared on this site.
6. Overdraft interest : All banks charge a variable fee each time your account goes into negative territory. In Luxembourg, these charges range from 7% to 9% of the amount owed to the bank. Be careful to choose the bank that offers the lowest overdraft interest.

By analysing all of these parameters in a single way, we are able to select a handful of bank account offers that we feel offer the best value for money. You can then browse the different thematic rankings to find the current account that best suits your needs and budget.
