Of these approximately 50% of deposits were carried out at a rate of 12% or more and the other 50%-less than 12%. If we want to preserve existing market coverage ( the coverage is extended to  96% of depositors ) then there is no need for changing the rate butt we will continue monitoring",- A. Javadov said.
