I would say first the Online Bank which has very low personnel costs could offer the highest interest rates, probably followed by the credit union in which members are all shareholders so they should receive preferential treatment, and finally the Traditional Banks which most likely have a higher overhead than the other two so the result would be lower interest rates on savings accounts to the customer.
