Haitong Bank S.A. Sucursal en España was established in Madrid, Spain in 2001. It is the Spanish branch of the Portuguese Haitong Bank S.A., which was established in Lisbon, Portugal in 1983. Haitong Bank S.A.'s business in Spain focuses on investment banking products and services for corporate and institutional clients. These include financial solutions, equities and asset management. As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Haitong Securities, one of the leading investment banks with securities operations in China, Haitong Bank S.A. focuses its extensive range of services on both the domestic and international markets. The bank specialises in particular in the financial markets in Europe, America and Asia. Please note that Haitong has a banking license in Portugal and offers term deposits via Raisin through its Spanish branch (Sucursal en España) in Madrid. This means that your savings with the bank are covered by the Portuguese deposit guarantee (up to €100,000 per depositor per bank), but Spanish withholding tax applies (which can easily be reduced to 0%).

Spain imposes a standard 19% withholding tax on deposit interest. However, as an Irish taxpayer, you can reduce this to 0% by submitting a certificate of Irish tax residence issued by Revenue. This document must be dated within 12 months of the expiry date and submitted at least 4 weeks prior to that date. For further details, please refer to the Product Information Sheet.

With Raisin Bank, one login gives you access to competitive savings accounts from banks across Europe, allowing your savings to work even harder. No fees, no paperwork: saving with Raisin Bank is online and hassle-free.
