Welcome to Brand New Day
We are a bank from the Netherlands. An online bank, but a real, official bank nonetheless. We have been around since 2010, and manage over € 5 billion for our clients.
You can’t open a checking account with us, or take out a loan. We focus on one aspect of the banking business: helping people grow a financial buffer for the future. You can open a pension account with us (which comes with significant tax benefits), and/or a regular savings or investment account. The latter don’t have any tax benefits. But, unlike a pension account, they allow you to take out all of your money at any time.
Once you reach retirement age, you can also choose to take out an annuity payment with us.
Our services are open to anyone (except U.S. citizens and a few other exceptions*) who lives and pays income tax in the European Economic Area, has a checking account with a Dutch bank, and has a Dutch mobile phone number.
Why you should open an account with us
We don’t believe in ‘fast money’. If you crave excitement and the day-to-day thrill of the stock market, we are not the right choice for you. We invest our clients’ money in the best way we know: with low costs, wide diversification, following indexes, looking steadily ahead. Whatever happens on the international stock exchanges: don’t get involved. ‘Slow money’ is what makes you rich. It just takes a little longer.
Sounds good? Learn more about our products.

Savings account
Like all other Dutch banks, we are supervised by De Nederlandsche Bank and so your savings are covered by the Dutch Deposit Guarantee. This means that, if Brand New Day goes bankrupt, your savings with us are protected on behalf of the Dutch government. You’ll be protected for any amount between €0.01 and €100,000, depending on the bank. You don’t have to do anything for this.
By the way, the Brand New Day savings account is for personal use only: so you can’t open a savings account with us in your company’s name.
The interest rate is 0.10% per year, regardless of how much is in the account. We calculate the interest you get daily, based on each full day the money is in the account. We will then credit (or debit) the interest to (or from) your account monthly. The interest rate is variable: so it can rise or fall at any time.We don’t require you to do anything. You can deposit when and how much you want, withdraw when you want and cancel when you want. No obligations. And if you ever need any assistance, Just get in touch.
You can open an account in your own name or in two names. It doesn’t matter who the second account holder is: whether it’s your partner, neighbour or child.
Saving for retirement? You can also do this with our retirement savings account. There are tax benefits attached to this. Read more about this on our retirement savings account product page.
Relocating
Are you planning to relocate? When you move abroad, this usually won’t affect your Brand New Day account(s). However, it is of course important to be aware of any tax implications resulting from the relocation. Here are the 3 options if you relocate abroad while holding a Brand New Day account.
Are you relocating to an EEA country? If so, you can keep your accounts under the condition that you have a Dutch IBAN and BSN.
Are you relocating to a country in this list? Then we unfortunately have to end the relationship and close the account. This has several financial implications. First, you will have to pay back all the tax you received from the Dutch tax authorities. This is 52% of your total amount. In addition, the 2022 surrender limit is €4,607. If the total value of the account exceeds this amount, the tax authorities can charge revision interest of up to 20% of the total surrender value.
Are you relocating to a country not in the list above? Then you should be able to keep your account.
Unsure about whether you can keep your account? Or do you have any other questions? If so, check out the additional conditions or get in touch with the customer service desk.
