Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by that. Could you explain?

The 1% and 2% examples are not from the article as one of the losing deposit examples, just my comparisons because I am familiar with them. So I wonder if they also report reduced deposits. (I am probably not even using the correct financial instrument to compare, it's just one easy to look up.)

So I wondered if consumers using the low interest banks (like Deutsche Bank with 0.4%) are mostly just switching to higher interest banks (like DKB with 1.0%) and the actual change to those 9.45 trillion euros is not in the tens of billions, as suggested by the article (e.g. Deutsche Bank with nearly 5% in change in deposits), but instead is closer to a few billions. In context of 9.45 trillion, that would be ~0.1%, which does not sound too worrying.
