What affects highest savings rates?

High headline savings rates usually reflect high local inflation — the real (inflation-adjusted) return can be much lower or even negative.

Currency restrictions matter. Some high-yield markets limit how much non-residents can deposit or withdraw in foreign currency.

Deposit insurance limits vary by country and are critical for risk management on large balances.
