Euclid,
This is a common but wrong interpretation of Negative Interest Rates Policy(NIPR). It is not that the customer is charged interest on the money deposited with the bank.... rather, it is when banks park their excess funds with central banks that they are charged interest by the central banks - This is done to encourage banks to lend money to business.....
It's not the ideal way to boost the economy, but we are living in unusual and turbulent times.....
