Interest on NOW accounts eyed in Senate debate
A Senate Banking subcommittee will hear arguments on whether mutual savings banks may pay interest on checking. Sparkman and Tower push to outlaw interest bearing checking for all institutions, while rivals warn of a national threat if allowed to spread. NOW accounts in Massachusetts and New Hampshire yield 7.5 to 9.0 percent and 3 to 4 percent respectively, drawing depositors with about 27,200 accounts totaling $71.5 million in Massachusetts. Commercial bankers oppose the practice, noting mutuals charge fees and gain a competitive edge. Congress may act as FDIC rules differ for mutuals.
