Demand for banking products and services generally exhibits seasonality. Marketing bank products in December is typically less effective, while September and October are prime times for marketing. Tax season can see increased demand for savings accounts, money market accounts, or certificates of deposit, as well as individual retirement accounts (IRAs), which also show strong sales in November and December. Summer months often lead to a surge in new checking account activity. The corporate credit market experiences seasonal variations in interest rates and lending volume, with "sales" periods in late spring and fall offering cheaper rates and higher funding volumes compared to winter and summer. Businesses often prepare for seasonal demands months in advance.
